Birds

     This morning started off just like every other morning. I got up, showered, and went to the kitchen to eat of bowl of cereal. I opened the kitchen door and took two steps and heard a rustling sound as two wild birds flew out from under the kitchen table. It should have been a startling experience, but I was not awake enough to realize that it was an odd experience until I got down the the bus stop twenty minutes later. I think I will make sure our balcony door is shut before I go to bed from now on.
