ruminations unencumbered,
white shutters unconstrained,
dream independent of promises,
air fresh with clarity, her hair
wet-combed,

white doves testing their
wings, she's flying them
on currents of origami,
recycled from remnants
of the past,

they carry out manuevers
in perfect tandem, wing
tips touch, currents of
origami polish the wind,

unfolding their wings,
the white dove sings,
spiraling upward on
a thermal, free to use
the whole sky,
origami on the rebound,
her creativity engaging,
cranked a notch or two
higher,

origami doves return
to perch on her shoulders,
and whisper the news in
her ears..."polish the winds."

Takes the reader up into the skies. :-) An actual white dove has taken to resting on my lawn in the last few days. I've been wondering if it's a sign. I rarely see them.

Beautiful, light and easy. Your creativity is polished and tender this morning...jist like the doves that fly down with musical wings.
