Cicadas

Your buzz soothes me.

Your presence comforts my soul.

You are the sound of the wild.

You are what makes this place whole.

You sing everyday,

From dusk to dawn.

Your song so sweet

Your shell so worn.

I find your remains

Stuck to a tree

But I know out there

You spirit is free

So sing dear cicada

Let your voice be heard

From miles away,

More beautiful than a bird.
