Waking up to the sounds of birds singing to each other,
Calling back and forth,
Noise bouncing here and there—echoes,
Do they realize how far their voices reach?
What is their intention?
What’s that now?
What do they say?
Something familiar, something new,
They whistle in possibilities,
And the newness of the day.
What is my intention?
How does it travel?
What do I say?
Do I realize the blessing that comes with this new day?

The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy. – Psalm 126:3
