August 5th 11:12 pm The crickets are noisy tonight They chirp back and forth Do they know its almost midnight? The loud sounds they should abort I remember one night years ago A cricket came inside my bedroom Woke me up at three in the morning It chirped like it was a playroom I heard it for an hour or two So loud it echoed in the ears I couldn't sleep for that time Not until the sound disappeared A few days later I had seen it I opened the window up a bit Pushed it toward the bottom It crawled out, the end of it Crickets are annoying to some Some find them very relaxing They can keep you up for hours Or they will have others napping ©Schizology August 5th 11:12 pm #august #poem #crickets
