How do bluebells know
when it’s time
to peep above the soil?
How to birds know
when it’s time
to cross vast continents?
How does the sun know
when it’s time
to sink beneath the sea?
How do rainclouds know
when it’s time
for me to light my barbecue?
Very fun! I was thinking just minutes ago how amazing it is that humans figured out how to tell time. I looked at my modern clock, but folks far more clever than me used some astonishing tools.
