Sometimes early in the morning before the alarm goes off I listen to the sounds of the world around me. A dog barking outside, a train whistle blowing it's warning in the distance, the clock ticking over the stone fireplace in the kitchen where the smell of fresh coffee will soon bring it's strong aroma to my room to get me up from my night slumber.
I enjoy that quiet time before the day begins, before the chores and errands, before the school bell rings and all the rushing about begins.
And at the end of the day when the sky is a dull gray, things will once again return to calm and quiet. I will ponder the day, think of all I've done and the things I'll do tomorrow, listening to the sounds of the night as I drift off to sleep, tucked in tight....Zzzzzzz
