I watched the birds outside
this early morning.
Already cheerfully
going about the business of the day.
they woke singing:
I woke worrying.

A pronounced contrast
in attitudes—
a gentle reminder
to be aware of
and grateful for
my many blessings.
Keep the birds
at my window, Lord.
I would like to learn
to greet your gift of morning
with a song.
