To take a moment in life to listen to it wake up is probably one of the most important points in the day….God has blessed us with a very beautiful planet. I just wish that we all thought the same way about our planet!
I call sparrows “Monkey Birds” and I sat quietly and listened just as the light started to stretch its glow and make things visible to the eye. but it is not what you can see, but what you can hear…
My monkey bird that lives in the lilacs started to stir. He poked his head out and looked at me and for a sparrow, he made such nice little peep noises. I said, “Good morning little monkey!”
He peeped at me and came down to take a bath in the water bowl I have for whom ever desires to bath in. After peeping sweetly and bathing? That ended the sweetness and then he started to do his normal sparrow squawking. A chickadee told him to shut up and the thrush (named, What you doing?) hopped over and stared up into the lilacs, looking for that terrible noise and…
Just like that, they teleported into existence, a dozen monkey birds appeared at the top of the lilac trees and hence forth commenced a meeting about world politics and how they would solve all issues…
Like any good meeting of such momentously important minds and abilities, it broke down quickly into a three ring circus and or like a bunch of monkey’s in a barrel…
Therefore, while the monkey’s discussed world politics and I am sure I heard so squawks about Afghanistan, the chickadees woke up and went to business eating bugs and such and What you doing? came over to me and asked, “What you doing?” I just looked at him and didn’t respond and he decided to chase a moth that had flown within excitement range of his abilities. The moth did not get far at that point…
I realized that I was watching the world wake up and fog rolled in from the lake and the sounds of life became noisier and noisier. Especially as the monkey birds got onto a subject of, “How many monkey’s fit into a bowl of water?”
By my estimation this morning?
Too many for sanity sake!
