Gray wispy clouds skillfully painted
Encapsulate the sun
While birds' tunes craftily are sung
A new day's play starts to run

Some birds still are quietly nodding
To a rhythm all their own
But the doves awaken early
Before the sun rays are shown

There is a Dove of Peace Who doesn't
sleep, He's there all the time
Feel Him knock on your heart's door
Saying no, only true crime

I like this Sara. It is indeed the biggest crime to reject Him when He knocks on the doors of our hearts. But then again, it's been said already, that His is the peace that the world does not understand...sad...:-( Loved this write, a 7.

That last stanza is just beautiful in its meaning for us all, Sara.

Wow, Sara, that is deep, i got a bit confused at the end. is that the heart saying, NO, to crime, or is it saying, i will only let crime in,.., Just wondering... LINDA
