The Dove


Published: Tue, 28 Feb 2006 11:19:42 -0500

I wrote this poem about the Holy Spirit for my Potters School english class. It uses the style of William Blake's poem "The Lamb." I really like this poem and I hope that you enjoy it as well.

Dove

Descending from above,
God sent you to the Son
A simple, lackluster dove
How could you be the one?

The Holy Spirit chose you,
A simple little dove
To represent his Spirit
And his mighty love

Such a simple, humble one
You are my little bird
You speak through me in a tongue
Your praise is not unheard

Now Jesus sent you
To guide and lead his Church
He truly loves you too
Let your heart be this doves perch.
