A beautiful sight greeted me this morning upon getting up from bed. Across my bedroom window, perched on a gumamela twig was a bird. Directly below was a flower smiling sweet as the rays of the sun came through.
The wind blew and the twig merrily moved up and down. The bird stayed perched on the twig happily chirping and seemingly enjoying the ride. In less than a minute the bird flew away to a place my eyes could not anymore follow. Such fleeting joy but it sure was a lovely start of my day.
