12:01

It's 12:01 am and the clouds roll past the moon
12:01 am the owl screeches “WHO WHO”
This all in the Tennessee county side
The cadence sounds hidden animal
Scrounging coyote jumping
This all in the wilderness
In five hours it'll be morning sunrise
The cricket rubbing it's hind legs murmuring
Calling to their mates, spider spun webs on gate
Radiant heat spring pouring smiling on the tree leaves
Bees and humming birds sucking licking nectar
From those morning flowers
Clouds hiding 
Owl screeching
Coyote sleeping 
This all in the wilderness
In five hours it'll be morning sunrise
The cadence sounds hidden animals
Some you may despise
Crickets talking while they're walking
Leaves crisp on branches on trees
Bee's floating nurturing flowers
From those morning flowers
In five hours it'll be afternoon's noon
12:01pm
