Now break the centre open
And here you will release
The five white doves awaiting
To spread good will and peace.

The five white doves are parts of the sand dollar’s mouth.

The mouth of a sand dollar, and other urchins, is called the Aristotle’s lantern.

The identically same object is exchanged back and forth between partners.

The sole purpose of exchange is to draw relationships closer by strengthening the ties of reciprocity.

Yours Forever,
