Notes About The Poem

This came to me one night as I was sitting outside looking at the stars.  I love crickets in the late summer, prophets of Autumn and Halloween.


August Crickets

Dark moon day of August
I stepping on a nail
hospital tetanus shot
I draw Kenaz from my Rune bag

Sitting out at night
First time crickets sing
Starry sky's Milky Way
Two shooting stars see me

My black cat runs by
Dog howls down the road
Forest spirits are afoot
Really too much magic

Thank you daver. I just read your Spider and A Finding, seems we both enjoy brief and vivid images. :) Cheers, DC
