I woke so early I heard an owl’s sweet lullaby.
The silence of the night still hung in the air as the birds began to sing in gratitude for the returning light of the sun.
As I sat and soaked in the stillness of the air, the bird song changed to car song as the traffic picked up on the busy road by my home and I marveled at the waking of the day.
I did not know yet how soul-filling the day would be. It would hold laughter and delicious homemade food and deep connection.
I woke so early I heard an owl’s sweet lullaby.
Daybreak.
