Opera's In The Forests

When the birds nest
Late at night 
And the moon glows 
Its brightest white 
The crickets chirp 
A tenor chorus 
Throughout the darkest 
Pitch-black forests 
Miles long 
Their voices heard 
Wakes the conscious 
Of the curious bird 
And so, they tweet 
To the cricket's song 
And sing in rhythm
All night long
