Frivolity


In the darkest hour before dawn
Awaken I to feathered voices
Sweet flirtations to court the new day
Heard be the fluttering of wings
Robins red breasted
Frivolity fills my chambers
And blushed be the hour.

Dear Rose Marie, winter starts tonight in Brazil so this picture as well the poem matches very well with this poem. Have a very nice Sunday!
Best wishes,
Rosana
