Crickets

The song had ended
and all I heard
were crickets out the window
chirping like night birds

The silence broken only
by the chirping of the cricket herd
so swept away I became
part of the quiet that I heard

No traffic rush
No footsteps beat
No hushed conversations
No garden celebrations
Just the chirping
of the cricketers
