Dear Reader,

Thank you for your precious time —
Hope you like these words of mine. 

The Boy Who Plays With Doves is a dark fairy-tale poem written in the style of a Seussian/Burtonesque children's book. For the most part, this story follows the syllable scheme of the traditional Vietnamese thơ thất ngôn, where each line has 7 syllables. Overall, the rhythmic flow is similar to that of the Witches' Song ("Double, double toil and trouble") from Shakespeare's Macbeth. So if you love spells and incantations, you're in for a treat. 

Please feel free to let me know if any parts confuse you or can be improved. I've tried my best to iron out all the narrative wrinkles and plot holes... 

As always, thank you very much for reading / voting / commenting :)
