splish splash. a noise interrupts me from my reading beside the window. splish splash. i hear the noise again. the sound comes from outside the window. i open the blinds to find a small little bird the color of the sky playing in the stone bird bath. it leans down for a drink from the clear water, then lifts lightly off the bath to land on a green leaf on the other side. the little bird makes a little tweet and more birds that look identical begin to come near. all the little blue birds fly around the bird bath and have a small little party until the sun begins to set.
