As the sun tinges the horizon A pale shade of rose Beauty touches the slate gray sky White canvas painted exposed Surround sound of Dove's voices Coos echo on all sides Roosters' fill in the deep bass sound Mockingbirds' tone abides All song birds in chorus sing out on this still quiet morn Melodies lift above trials As the Doves' song is born There's that stillness saying wait Rest before one of life's storms The Holy Spirit does comfort In my heart there's His form No matter what life's trials present The Comforter is there Like the assurance of a daily Sunrise no need to despair As the orange sun glows like embers Through the silhouetted trees Thoughts run to the Savior's anguish Who did so much for me He made this awesome provision The gift of the Comforter Just reach out and touch the Savior He's the great Affirmer

There is so much to admire in this poem, Sara -- your faith, your love for nature and the way you find happiness each morning. Wish everyone could find this type hope when the sun rises. Such a beautiful poem! (Back from Sea World - right foot was run over by a wheelchair. Hobbling now.) Hope Tommy and the rest of your family are doing well. Love and blessings to you on this Sunday morning, Carolyn

This is interesting, the way it unfolds, from the winged little angels in the sky to the Christ in the heavens. Well penned.
