Visayan  Dove

Her dreams soar high,
high above the sea and land,
her wings fluttering in gentle breeze,
as she flies over blue Mindanao Sea.

In the distance a silhouette of land emerges,
soon Visayan panorama unfolds,
a panorama of her native land.,
of beloved Philippine islands.

Below is her loved ones,
hidden under those green palm trees,
not knowing of the dove high above,
showering them with serenity of love.

Below is her birth place,
right there under the citrus tree,
where not long ago,
she was laughing, happy child.

Then the western wind of dreams,
carried her wings eastwardly,
high above the continental land,
where her darling reside.

 Below is her dearest one,
 her darling teeming with love,
love for the Visayan Dove,
not knowing she is high above.

The dove waves  farewell,
with her white wings,
farewell my dear,
for the time being.
