Raven's Journey
My Love, you were a happy child.
The lone toddler of a hopeful couple.
Smiles, laughter, bathing in the abode.
Perfection is embodied in a babe's spirit.
Fragile, the nest teeters in a spring gale.
His delinquent father was lost to shackles.
Mother drops her crimson cleaver.
A wooden needle protrudes from his heart.
Rejected waif tossed to a filthy curb.
Civic stooge vends forsook nestling.
Desertion destroys the imp's frail psyche.
The inevitability of purity consumed.
Over one hundred nests did he dwell.
Persona spirals into abject depravity.
The mirror reflects an iniquitous beast.
Courageous, he emerges tattered.
Enter Dove, passionate plea extended.
Raven discovers shelter from a storm.
Love gifting him a moment of respite.
One season free of salacious teeth.
Broken, he deserts a weeping Dove.
Shattered, tumbling into the abyss.
Ebony crockery shards need sweeping.
He escapes, freedom now beckons.
The maternal hand returns a loving touch.
Mountain journey must he travail.
Familial nest uneasily occupied.
Abandoned heart, an empty echo.
November blanket of ivory white.
Eternally searching for innamorata lost.
Cyber signature sparks ineffable hope.
Dream or reality, he reaches.
A vision of beauty, a long-lost melody.
Joy untold, holding dear a lost muse.
Exhalation, love within the nest.
Raven embraces his Dove.
