Rhythm of the Night


Whispering Live Oaks, a breeze through her moss
Cricket's legs speaking ...bug eyed and lost
Lightning bug flashing with all of her might
Listen , its calling...this rhythm of the night

Stars are exploding with brightness around
Moonbeams shooting ... rays that rebound
Silently Nighthawks brush by their prey
As evening lowers her midnight-blue shades
Its orchestrated...elated ...darkened...and faded
Its lights out...earthly shouts ...bright greens now jaded

Its stardust surrounding the comet's gold swing
Through cosmic light forces and a full moon's bright beam

Its silent love songs from clicking Raccoons
The swoosh of a Barn Owl ...the call of the Loon
Its darkened and singing with twists and a shout
All music at night time... that's what it's about

It's smothering bouquets of aromatic nectar
The splash of a shrimp in the channel...projected
It's magic you know ...illusion ...insight
Mystery rebounding, it's the rhythm of the night.

Penned by, Susan K. Rowse

For some crazy reason all that I could read, and it was sticking in my head was,"Crickets legs spreading" instead of speaking, Tells you where my head is at.

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
