 Magnificat of Morning - A Fold

Morning bespoke of bird song,

Wends her way in andante strides,

What could ever go wrong?

Sunrise, moonset, is morning's magnificat

As we know, bespoke of bird songs;

Fantasy of the earth standing still

Has been sipped like fine tea in long,

Pandemic permission curtailed days,

Still, will not cower to the fiction,

As Covid spanned its own season,

Even to morning bespoke of bird song.

  11. Covid, though a natural phenomena, did seem unnatural and we needed other norms of nature, like birdsong to get us through - great fold Gillena...
