The Dove

    By Paul Laurence Dunbar



    Out of the sunshine and out of the heat,
    Out of the dust of the grimy street,
    A song fluttered down in the form of a dove,
    And it bore me a message, the one word--Love!

    Ah, I was toiling, and oh, I was sad:
    I had forgotten the way to be glad.
    Now, smiles for my sadness and for my toil, rest
    Since the dove fluttered down to its home in my breast!
