Dawn Chorus

While we sleep deep in our beds
the birds are welcoming the day
singing in trees a glorious song
chirping in harmony hundreds sing
it only lasts for a short while
but the splendid glory of it all
is not to be missed a life concert
not even the great masters wrote
who are these glorious creatures
singing the day awake they greet
the morning sun again a new day
they warble their heart song out
trilling they give every note room
oh to be in their choir of beauty
if only for a moment to be part
of this dawn chorus of pure delight
