Season Tickets


The symphony
of summer evenings
is tuning up again
as soft dusk
approaches night. 

Cicadas are finishing

for the day,
while katydids and 
snowy tree crickets
begin to strike
their measured notes.


They don't seem to mind
if I fall asleep
during their performance.

I know it will happen

each night I open
the bedroom windows
of my country home.

I've been given
season tickets
to summer dreams.
