Sweet Sounds

As I wait

I close my eyes

and listen to the sweet sounds

When all have yet to awake

In the mornings glory

The birds sing

an ever-changing tune

Their sinfully beautiful symphony

Music to my ears

A car passes

the orchestra stops

the tunes fading into silence

And still here I wait

Among the oblivious

That do not hear

the sweetness that resides in the trees
