The Beauty of Early 'Morn

The beauty of early morning is amazing. Although it's almost 7:30am the best time is when it's still dark out and nature is starting to wake.... ahead of the human rat race (so to speak).

A family of birds sing joyfully outside my kitchen window, declaring a new and glorious day. I sit and listen to their bird chatter. It's beautiful. The sun begins to peak over the horizon warming the earth. You can almost feel the flowers in the garden stretch. Ready to peak out and explode in color. Any day now. The sun excites them into a furious growth, a growth that will be pleasing to our eyes and food for the bees and butterflies.

Spring. A time of new birth. A time of rejuvenation. A time to celebrate.
