Hearing You Call Valentine

I told you coos the dove
Somewhere just north of here
Or it could be I need you
There is a 'd' in there
Which makes me wonder
If the animals will learn to speak
On time to save us from ourselves
But why learn to talk and sing
If no one's listening
A prophet among her people
A Slavic woman told me once
You are either one who has ears
For death or one who has ears for love
Quoting some silent dove
