Super Satisfying Sunrise Stroll

"It is quite possible to leave your home for a walk in the early morning air and return a different person - beguiled, enchanted." ~ Mary Ellen Chase We enjoy the whistling wind as we walk, The cool morning breeze calms and charms us, A peacock is perched on a peepal tree, Its fine feathers flowing fascinatingly, Its sound of squawking seems sophisticated, Like mystical music to its magnificent mate; The butterscotch-orange ball blooms in the blue, A snake slithers silently in the sewer nearby, Songbirds tweet tantalizingly in the tall trees, Vehicles plying on the highway are a vision to view, Blushing bougainvilleas have blossomed in bunches, Numerous neem trees line the narrow footpath, A squirrel squeezes through a small, square hole, And we uncover God's wonders as He unveils a new day.

Morning has broken like a new day ... MAN, it is peacock day. You definitely saw one and it inspired you which in turn gifted me. That's my take and I'm sticking with it. I never read the words sewer or highway in a poem about nature's beauty. Very original and I'm sure they were there. You have been very good to me and my soul today, uplifting us with peacock wonder. Thank you again, Jo. Be golden ... CayCay
