1. THE SPELL
The day was clear and calm as Allee sat on the large rock at the corner of the hay field. Allee was in the middle of meditating when she looked up and saw him standing there. Then he faded into thin air. Who was he and why did I see him. Allee got up and went back to her cottage. She got out her scrying mirror to see if she could find out who he is. After several minutes she sees nothing and she has no answers. She goes to her altar lights the candles and casts the spell.
Man of mist man of air
Come to me from over there
Part the mist part the air
Come to me from over there
Allee blew out the candles then sat to wait for him she waited for hours before she gave up and went to bed.
She repeated the spell before she drifted off.
Allee walked the dream plane all night but he didn’t come to her. She finally called to her astral familiar, a dove. The dove flew to her hand.
Little dove bring him to me
That was all she needed to say. The dove saw the picture in her mind of him.
Allee woke feeling tired and sad she didn’t find him.
She decided to repeat the spell again.
Man of mist man of air
Come to me from over there
Part the mist part the air
Come to me from over there
2. HIS DOVE
Drake stands by the window going over his worries in his mind. Work was bad. His love life was worse. He was trying to figure out what he had to do to change his life. He was miserable.
Out of the corner of the eye, he saw something. It was a woman dressed in a long, flowing, white robe with long auburn hair. He watches as she fades into nothing.
Astonished and a little frightened, he falls into a nearby chair. What was that? Who was that? Where did she go? Where did she come from? Sitting there, he hears a noise at the window. He looks up to see a snow white dove looking at him staring and still. He feels like it knows him. He goes to the window to shoo it away. The dove looks at him, and then with a nod of its head, it flies away as if on a mission. Drake sits back in the chair. Suddenly, he feels a sense of relief or was it hope. Anyway things didn’t seem as bad as they did just a few minutes ago.
He wondered who she was, this ghost, in his living room. The woman and the dove must be connected. Why else would he have seen them at the same time? He went to the kitchen to get something to eat, but not before he looked back into the living room where she had stood.
Later that evening, as he was sleeping, he dreamed of the dove. It landed on his hand as tame as a caged bird. He could feel it was trying to tell him something but he could not understand. The dove was trying to tell him of Allee and that she was searching for him.
3. FLIGHT OF THE FEATHER
Allee was frustrated. The spell wasn’t working. That could only mean that the man was not a spirit. He must be a living man. She had sent the astral dove to find him. How would he know what the dove wanted unless he had the wisdom to understand? She could only hope he was able to understand.
She went to the rock again to meditate. When she arrived, there a dove sat on the rock.
The dove had found him. She was surprised. As she stood there, the dove flew away leaving a feather on the rock. She snatched it up and ran to the cottage. She would use it to find him. She needed a map, a crystal, and some luck.
In the cottage, she found the crystal and map. Clearing a table, she laid out the map, tied a string around the crystal and feather and let them sway. She waited for the pull. The crystal pulled her away from the map on the table. So she got a map of a larger area. The crystal pulled her to a city.
How would she find him there? Well maybe fate would step in. Besides a shopping trip was never a bad idea. She made plans to go to the city now. Fates do your best.
4. WATCHER ON DUTY
Drake found that on his window ledge was a new friend. The dove had come again and again. Every day since he had seen the woman in the living room. The dove would come and sit on the window sill as if it was keeping track of him. It was starting to get creepy. He didn’t feed it and tried to shoo it away, but it still came back. He wasn’t aware of why the dove was there. Drake didn’t walk the path of wisdom. Drake walked no path of faith at all. Practical and business oriented. Faith never had a place in this life. The only things he believed in were profit. That dove was not profit.
On the third day, the dove stayed longer. It came and went several times during the day. He even thought he remembered seeing it at work, but it could have just been a pigeon.
5. DOVE OF PEACE
It was her third store a boutique named Peace. It had the regular tie-dyed and peace signs, but it also had some lovely crystal jewelry. She ducked in to the store and bought a necklace.
On her way out, she was looking down adjusting her packages. She ran into someone she looked up. It was him. He stared at her. It was her. They stood there staring at each other until a dove landed on the parking meter near them. It cooed and then flew away. He asked her out for coffee. She went. He asked her to dinner. She went. He asked her to stay. Allee stayed with drake in the city for the rest of their lives.
