Whispers of melody echo in line with the rising dawn
greeting fellow neighbors, chanting “A New Day!” “A New Day!”
Though most ears can’t understand, the excitement arising
from their chests is enough to feel it
From within the thick bushes in our front yard, sparrows sing
and dance in tune, as all aspects of life walk past or stop to
listen to the hidden hum composed by a hidden world.
The sparrows’ morning song recites without cease till
the night quiets the melody as the sparrows rest in their dreams.
