Cicadas


Cascading inward cutting amble down across sticks  

Into the blacked, moonlit night

Creating an orchestra throughout the forests from mountain to sea consisting only of chirps

     and clicks

A tune with the coming day’s light

Dumb, however, when the pending morn be cold and wet

A sure sign of bad weather for which to be met

Still to this day, from ancient time

            Nature’s own weatherman, who always gets it right, and understands the clime.

Someone who plays around with different themes. From Mythology to Sports teams. Not one to pass on a good idea. From Ireland to South Korea. Here comes a poet not so grand But here I am, pen in hand. Take my work as it be If you like, comment me.
