It’s great to be alive

The birds rise in unison

Hugging and hooting the arriving winds

They skate on the soft south winds

Across the shimmering river below

Some of them occasionally pooping

Into vantage points in the river

As the inspiration within guides

Living their life mission

Doodled into their genes

It’s great to be alive!
