Birdsong

Tweet tweet tweet
I hear the birds speak
I wonder what they say

Perhaps it’s a song
Or a prayer strong
To welcome golden day

The sunshine glows
And wouldn’t you know
By their cheerful chirps

Perhaps they’ve learned 
To get the early worm
And whistle while you work

I lay here nude
Enjoying their tune
Of rainbow inflections 

Tan ceiling fan on
Creating my own song
Sunny disposition suggestion 

Good morning soupers
May you all be troupers
As you earn that early worm

May you keep hope
With or without clothes
As the world turns

Ha, ha, ha. Tina Turner had a hit song called 'What's Love Got to Do with It?' I'm gonna substitute 'Clothes' for 'Love.' lol. ~ Gershon
