Katydid
Katydid's musical cadence
.                      Wafting through the window, drumming my soul....

Katydid
A katydid stopped at my door.
Wedge of green gossamer
But something more.

I angled to get a closer look.
Intrusive I fear was I.
He quickly me forsook.

Off to call at another door
Winged wisp of wonder
On a neighborly autumn tour....

The katydid clings to my chair
Utters not a noise
A golden sun peeks from beyond
Through gray clouds only choice

The white illumination shines
Gives a glow under clouds
As fog settles in the hollow
Making a coolness proud

Wonderful time of solitude
Quiet before a storm
Noises of humanity begin
And a new day is born  ...

Pity the Poor Katydid
Somehow you flew in and hid
Right under my toilet lid
Ouite sure you were dead
'Little pest!' I said
Pity the poor Katydid!

Saw a leg twitch, God forbid
Guess what I done-gone-and-did?
'Okay, my green lass
Go die in the grass'
Pity the poor Katydid!

*** Katydids are harmless bright green insects with large wings in the cricket-grasshopper family...

Songbirds are singing,
voices are ringing,
morning arrives in the vale.
Hummingbirds humming,
woodpeckers drumming:
everything hearty and hale!

Throughout the forest:
katydid chorus;
Barn owl has something to say.
Crickets are chirping,
bullfrogs are burping,
glorious end to the day.

Three Friends
a frog and a mouse went for a ride went along side by side down the road they rode to see until they got to the big oak tree sat in the shade all day they did until they met a new katydid a frog and a mouse went for a ride joined by a katydid who rode by their side sang to a tune the katydid knew out of the trees the birds flew no one seemed to really understand the friendship of this merry band

Cadence calls collective clans
ricochet katydid
not crackle her crocodile skin.

Crazy kids combine their fares
for riding rickety RinTinTins,
out zipping their yipping files.

Corny crackers crash their lines
lickety slippety splat
finishing race far much too soon
before fine ladies grow fat.

Cadence cries corrective crams
flippety frying flies
falling their crowns upside down
while mothers cry for their sins....
