THE START OF A NEW DAY


It’s five minutes to six as I write this, but it is still so dark, it feels like the middle of the night.  It’s very quiet right now; no TV, no radio.  The least amount of light that I can get away with.  The windows are open and all I hear is the snap, crackle, pop of the small animals scurrying around in the branches overhead, waiting for the first light so they can climb down and begin their day.  I hear the faint sounds of the cars as they travel on Rt. 235 and the patter of cat feet as they chase each other around the room. I’ve been outside and did a little star gazing.  I LOVE this time of the day—on the weekends.  
six twenty:

Just starting to get some light now. I just finished filling up the bird feeders and putting out corn for the squirrels. (it keeps them off the feeders) The moon is still out but the sounds of chirping crickets is starting to give way to the chirping birds.
