Analysis of The dove's messages



Send me messages with the dove
That will guide the birds to move
Each one to catch it's clove
Enchanting songs and music to save
From the corus came out of the cave
Like a strong tideous wave
In everyday of a week's eve
So nice that you can't leave
Just put down your right sleeve
will soon take left to weave
The white dove and the green olive
For Mohamed, David and Steve.
