Animals Right On Time

Animals Right On Time

 

I enjoy the fireflies

In late afternoon

When they go blinking

Under an early moon

 

And in the evening

I can sense the night

With the whip-poor-will

Calling in delight

 

And when the night

I hear the mighty owl

Hooting as he goes

Flying and on the prowl

 

When the early morning

I hear the rooster there

Just before the light

As day is prepared 

 

And when the day

There is life that goes

With the players there

Busy like a crow
