Song of the mourning dove
Drifting on the mist
Through dawns gentle light
Swirling as it lifts.
Sun beams strike the clouds
And shadows dance away.
Glory streaks across the sky
Like a dusky rose bouquet.
In the quietness of morning
I hear the dew drops fall
And see the moisture glisten
As the light reflects them all.
The flowers in the garden
Emits a sweet perfume
Awakened with a kiss
As the sun removes the gloom.
The play of awesome colors
Straight from the Master's hand
In painting of the sunrise
Would our imagination be so grand?
So rise now my sleeper
Open up your eyes,
Absorb the bloom of morning
For this is day's delight!
And keep close the vision
Displayed up in the sky
As a place of refuge
While the day passes by.
Then with the touch of love
Gentle heart be not afraid
With others share the light
As you walk throughout your day.
