Kindling Chorus

blazing sun set
                                fire hued meadow resonates
                                        crickets crackling

Congratulations on your cracking second place Maureen, but for me, it was crackling that let it down. Mick

Thank you Mick! I figured it might be borderline metaphor, wasn't expecting a 1st place, thrilled with second and too happy with it to change... or was it the alliteration? (I can try to contain it for the sake of your contests;) xomo!
