Now that my eyes have adjusted to "Ole' Mr. Sun", all of my other senses are also beginning to kick in. As, I yawn and let out a mighty roar, my arms automatically reach out to embrace the warmth rushing into my window.
But, wait a minute. What's that I hear ? The sound is so very familiar... It's the same loud and clear sound I recognize from my childhhood; my adolesence years and even throughout my adulthood. There are no words or lyrics that I can understand or interpret. There's not even any background music or vocalist, yet it is so, so beautiful.
It's the sound of birds singing.. and they're singing the same ole songs.
As this particular sunrise and future sunrise's come and go, I'm reminded daily, that life's ever ticking time clock, does not wait for me or anyone and that no matter what I think or do, it will continue to wind down. Fortunately, there is peace in knowing that with each beautiful sunrise and sunset; and as each of these sweet and gentle young soliders also begin to age. I know they will never forsake; abandon or forget to herald the new day with a song........Songs that will never, never grow old.
