Evening Melody

Hear the crickets playing their melody Evening star grant my wish Dew adds a damp coolness to my skin; Fireflies light the fading horizon seeking the perfect mate In the dance of reproduction Sitting on the porch swing Swaying and pondering life as a moment, Between the great sky lights. For Laura McKenzie's contest Beyond nightfall! thanks for the inspiration!!
