5 Minutes in My Backyard
The finches bright yellow shouts "find happiness!"
The morning dove coos, "breathe deep, smell this fresh new day!"
Chitter, chatter and the squirrels' tail pulses in excitement over seeds dropped and shared by the birds overhead.
Blue Jays swoop, cardinals sing.
The dog basks in the sun.
"Thank you for the cool drink", bobs the head of the sparrow in the bird bath.
"Let's play chase!" screeches the robin as he chases after another.
Close your eyes human.
