Dawn Chorus - 9th May, 2015

Press play and read:

Before the dawn the wind is nigh
Hills fringed all aglow
Up early, breathing in and sigh
Last night now long ago

Ah, moon camped far behind me now
Turn and face the east
Dawn chorus birds are friends I know
A hundred fold at least

Warm and close I clasp my tea
Koel calls out again
Rooster crows to waken me
With finch, magpie and wren.

HETHER MILANE - May 2015
