A solitary songbird began his daybreak vocals
summonning his friends to join his reveille.
An insect heard the call and single-handedly
(or footedly or leggedly) contributed his tympanic rhythm.
They rocked out energetically for near an hour
before the other birds awoke in full force
to take up the morning anthem and stir the world into action.
Then a holy choir crescendoed in volume and sweetness
as the chatter and laughter of children filled air.
