What wakes you up in the morning? Is it your bladder? Is it the sun shining through the curtains? Is it your child calling your name? Is it the alarmclock? Lately, these two ladies - sitting high on the neighbours' roof - wake me up with their chitter. I sip my coffee out on the balcony … [Read more...]
Bells, Wind and Clouds
