The Day Starts With Music

At 5.51am

the birdsong begun.

Amen, hooray,

end of the night,

beginning of the day.

If I hear the magpies,

in the morning, of a

new day dawning,

I know it is going to be joyous,

and one worth exploring.

Let’s get going,

let’s get on our way,

let’s get this bright new day

on its way.

There is a big, bright world

out there, to envelope us

in its splendor, let’s go, 

let’s run out into it,

to its charms,

and what it has to give us.

and surrender.
