Cricket Music

Crickets
Crickets singing, chirping, playing
the melody sounds
it plays, it trickles, it surrounds me.
I am lost in that sound.
In the distance a dog barks; and barks again.
A plane circles overhead.
A train in the darkness; then it’s rumble is heard, no felt.
That dog again.
The train grows nearer.
The rumble. the horn. the horn.
The plane drones on.
The rumble fades; a distant horn.
The plane circles and is gone.
And the crickets, oh the crickets they continue
Their sweet gentle harmony continues; the constant music of the crickets.
