Limerick

There came a dark rain from above
With sorrow we released all our doves
They flew up through the night
Some plummeted with fright
One returned framed by God's Glorious Love

James, Endearing thought. Like the use of the limerick form for this purpose.

"One returned framed by God's Glorious Love" Such a beautiful thought. At least one wasn't afraid. Doves are graceful. Your thoughts are uplifting. ~ Brandy
