Is heard a cacophony of summer songs
Chirping crickets, throaty frogs, birds and
Wind, chords written with melodious ink

Of moon and stars, sighs of clouds, that fill
A restless soul, making this the perfect concerto.

How I could see it all, just as your words drew the scene...
Be always safe,
Karen
