The Door of Peace - an etheree

Dance with the West Wind copyright@Roderick MacIver

Look
and wait
at the Door
opening bright
beaming rays of Light
rays to heal, wash, guide
How can you refuse, remain
in the deep darkness pervading?
Look up and walk to the Door of Peace!
Place your life in His hands ~ find renewal!

Exquisite Truth!
This is gorgeous, Sis! And, best of all, it is an invitation to taste the wonders of God and His Christ: would that all take such an awesome renewal. You are the master poetess, so this should reap the GOLD!

Much luv & hugs, SisBon
