Oh, mourning dove!

While I grew you never changed

Singing in the morning

Silence in the noon

You never failed to croon

Announcing each day, and soon the next

Like a ticking clock you sang

Though at the time I did not realize

Taking for granted those fun filled summer days

When i hear you i reminisce upon the past

Oh how I wish I could go back

Memories of the Mourning Dove remind me of my childhood, to which I cannot return.
