Hope is a white dove

Taking flight for the first time

Spreading its beautiful intricate wings

So bright and fragile

It starts out shaky

Maybe a little out of breath

And then it levels out

Something almost magical happens

When it soars up like its wings were made of fire

Gliding right along the edges of the clouds as of it were on ice

Getting to a place so high no one can touch

To a place where it belongs

Some say that doves are for peace and love

But I think otherwise

After all,

How can there be peace and love

Without even a sliver of hope first-

To commence that peace and love

Hope is a white dove

That need not be restrained

Nor smothered

Hope

Set it free
