The Song of Doves
Language: English
Those summer voices linger As footprints in our minds Their well-remembered tones In every breeze we hear. Their summer voices linger As laughter in the air Those special little phrases Imprinted in our minds. These summer voices gather As unified they turn To soar above in harmony The ancient song of doves.
