The Dove by Nicholas Allan
A quirky take on a favourite bible story.
The Dove
Summary
The hermit had the island all to himself, and that was how he liked it. It was quiet, tidy and peaceful and he was quite content, until the day the bird arrived. The bird was noisy, messy and energetic and just wouldn't go away. The hermit was furious.
