sound

Inspired by Dave Bonta's Morning Porch

Rain misting across the park in drifts.
A rich mayhem of songs, but I don't know them all.
Galahs saw away at the top of the trees.
A sulphur cockatoo trumps them with his gravelly rasp.
Sometimes there are colourful rosellas.
Honey eaters dance in the bottlebrush
and Willie Wagtails skip and swing over the grass.
We have blackbirds and sparrows.
A crow calls, and a rooster.
