i was wonderstruck yesterday...

when dewdrops sparkle in the grass,

and earth's a flood with morning light,

a black bird sings upon a bush.

to greet the dawning after light.

then i know how fine it is to be alive. 

--I Never Saw Another Butterfly by Charles Davidson, Movement Nine "Birdsong"

::♫::•::♫::

yesterday, i was entirely wonderstruck. (taylor swift reference there.) you see, it's spring here right now and yesterday was the coolest day of spring that we've ever had, at least to me. it was approximately 68 degrees. i went outside and saw a bunch of dew in the grass. i grabbed my camera and took those pictures for this post. i also thought about that part of Birdsong to go along with the post. it was incredible!

now you might want to know how i knew about I Never Saw Another Butterfly, well. i had a choir concert on Sunday and we sang that piece all from memory. we also had to stand for a hour and a half straight. 45 minutes for the rehearsal, 45 minutes for the concert. ugh. in Butterfly (Movement Four) i accidentally slipped to the soprano 1 part (i sing soprano 2) in one part. and the part i slipped in included a high a. lemme say this. NAILED THAT HIGH A! gimme some! *puts hand up for high five*

now i realized the last couple of posts i've been writing have been the real me talking, and no one commented. signalling no one likes the real me. i don't care though. if people don't like the real me, than they should just stop following me.
