Echoes of the Night


Each day as the sun sinks slowly down in the sky
There's one sound of summer that begins to amplify
The quiet of the day almost magically transforms
Into music . . . into song . . . as if trees are to perform
What is this chatter that takes over the night?
Is it when they wake . . . is it time for them to reunite?
Is there a message . . . for us all to hear
In those echoes, that fill the night just before it will disappear?
We can only imagine, as this too is nature at its best
A short time when we can forget about all the rest!
