A Crickets Choir

As I lie and I listen
To the crickets legs twisting
They play loud, a long song
Throughout night to dawn
Like a choir on key
They sing loud just for me
Their tunes hum, through my head
While I’m sleeping, in my bed
When I twist and I turn
Their tunes by heart, I’ve now learned
Their tunes echo from the rear
Causing tingling, through my ears
Not a switch to turn them off
Sometimes annoying like a cough
The crickets choir, plays tranquil melodies
Peaceful soothing night time remedies
Their choir music, puts me at ease
From my window, I call out, I ask please
Sing crickets, twist your legs
Twist them fast, twist them slow
Perform for me, a well rehearsed show
All cricket members begin to play
So I may sleep my night away
