This is absolutely beautiful and I love the imagery.
I also like the swap quatrain form as each quatrain feels complete.
The poem's spiritual theme appeals to me as it gives a peaceful feeling and I can almost hear the dove.
Your art work is a perfect accompaniment to the poem.
Well done. Thanks for sharing.

Good morning, Nancy.
I appreciate the exceptional rating more than you know. Even more important to me, though, or your kind words. Thank you so much. Morning is my peaceful time and I?m glad that was conveyed in the poem.
The artwork was done with AI, I must confess. It?s a wonderful tool, though, when used correctly. 😊
Blessings to you and yours,
Deb

I must say the words and image in your poem depict such joy. As I'm not religious, I didn't read anything spiritual into it. It was just a message of pure joy. Ulla xcx

I?m so pleased that you felt the joy. I know that you are not a religious person and we each and our own journey. But I am delighted that you read it and enjoyed. I actually did steal that First Line from the Bible. That?s why I titled it some 56. I figured I had to give some credit to the guy that came up with it. Lol is it plagiarism when the work is four years old? Ha ha ha.
Blessings to you and always,
Deb

Absolutely beautiful poem, Deb. You outdid yourself on this one. The artwork you chose is a perfect compliment for your words.
I would have given you six stars except for a couple of typos. If you can fix those, I will be happy to come and redo the rating. First stanza, last line - you need to add a space between "a" and "dove". Last word of the poem - there is an extra "o" in "joy".
In spite of the typos, this is a wonderfully easy to read poem with an uplifting message.

Singing along, the doves high-pitched coos in harmony, makes for the sweetest of melodies. We hope. So, that the neighbors don't call the police. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

They haven't called 'em yet, so I think I'm in the clear! lol. Besides, sometimes the cops need a good song, too!

Yes, Doves are a symbol peace. We need so much peace in the world. I pray daily for it. I know only with God's help can we achieve it. Thank you for sharing this poem with us.

I believe we'll only see pockets of peace and personal peace until Jesus comes back. But it's so important to do what we can and PRAYER is the biggest, most important thing to do.
Thank you for reading, sweet gfriend,
Blessings,

I lovely psalm swap quatrain! Keep singing praises to the Lord and trust in Him just like the little birds do. Our pastor quoted from Psalm 56 yesterday including the last verse "For you have delivered me from death
and my feet from stumbling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life."
I sang along with them, with jooy. (joy)

That's awesome! The line is actually from the subtitle of Ps 56 - 'to the tune of A Dove in Distant Oak. I was so taken by that phrase that I decided it deserved it's own Psalm. Not that I'm anywhere near that, either in my writing skill or my Walk with Christ. But I'm working on it!
Blessings, dear friend,

Comment from C.M. Brown
Excellent use of rhyme and so beautifully put! I love the thought - a dove praising God through song. I really appreciate how you use a dove in your verse because that was the first bird to come back to Noah with an olive branch. Thank you and keep rhyming.
