Magic is the pitter patter of the rain

Against my dusty window pane

At 4 am

While the tiny sparrow chirps

In the majestic mango tree

Tapping against the blue window sill

And the bells gently chime

In the anklet my daughter gave

Creating an extraordinary symphony of these ordinary sounds

At an extraordinary hour
