For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Right beside me, a little bird,
Watching him, I say not a word.
Now on my shoulder, sings his song,
So nice of him, he stayed quite long.
Off he went, to the tree he flew,
I wondered if, he really knew,
I was the one, who gave him food,
And to thank me, he came and stood,
Beside me there, his song to sing,
And wave to me, as he took wing.

Yep! I actively walked to the river and actively sat on the bench down there and actively took pictures and actively crawled, I mean, walked back and actively collapsed on the deck and actively watered my newly purchased flowers and actively swept the deck and actively watched the birds, chipmunks and squirrels and actively banged my head on the table when the internet didn’t work! So it was a very actively active day full of activity for sure!🤯😵😵😂😹

One day at the coffee shop I saw a huge truck and a small car parked side by side. There was 2 people inside getting coffee to go, a young very small woman and a great big guy, looked like a biker type. It was obvious who was driving which vehicle. The woman got in the truck, the big guy got in the little car, with difficulty. Actually they both had difficulty getting in their vehicles.😂😹
