Conspicuous Calling

Courtship calling in the day and into the night

In the trees above, singing songs hidden from sight

Crying and screeching their tears are releasing

As a single leaf, flutters to the ground, making its way home

Dancing to the rhythm of the cicadian drums

All is alive in everything that it becomes
