Cannot Sleep
Inevitably the first bird sang
As the breeze lifted, and
Trees responded reaching and
thrusting their arms showing
off their morning energy
Is that first bird the hyperactive
one of the brood?
Whilst brothers and others nestle
Down unwilling to lift their lids
He chirps away until he hears
No response around, from the ground
Then quietens for a moment.
Rest is difficult when the zest
For life and living is so great!
