You can barely hear, the murmur’s so soft
As birds begin stirring in nests aloft
Be still and listen when decibels grow
As the lights of the dawn begin their show.
These tiny fledglings do make lots of noise
With their bobbing heads all hungry and poised
The sound increases as the morning glows
Preventing some from enjoying a doze.
Ah but now it seems all are quite content
Hear the silence speak, no complaints to vent !
