Song

At 4:40 am when I got up to get ready for bed, (having fallen asleep dressed), I heard the first birdsong of the morning: one crystal clear ‘full-sentence’ undulating melody. Within minutes came a myriad of call-and response songs from all sides of my house as a take off from that first one. Lots of conversation: I think they were saying, ‘oh my, oh my, oh my.’ A tiny bit of deep dark blue light appeared from out of the heaviness of night, and then I went back to sleep engulfed by the chorus.
