Like today,
when you wake to a celebration,
a cacophony of noise in the valley.
The birds sing, their voices a rising chorus,
the sun is hot as it blazes its glory
all over the place,
and the sheep call out, loudly.
Does it not seem to you
that the whole earth is shouting out
in praise because it can’t keep it in?
‘If they keep quiet, even the stones will cry out.’ Luke 19:40
