THE CRICKET SINGS TOO:


The Diva sings her opera & the lounge-lizard croons,

The country singer yodels, to the balladeer, his tunes,

The rocker blasts his heavies & pop is forever heard,

Jazz, soul, blues, all about feeling, never mind the words.

 

The nightingale loves trilling & so does the morning lark,

The blackbird prettily warbles, in country lanes & parks,

Mothers, at their daily chores, hum softly to their babes,

To everyone their joyful song & to each, their serenade.

 

But let´s not forget the cricket, gaily singing in the trees,

Chirruping in through windows, his tune on evening breeze,

Announcing change of seasons & of everything that´s new,

So let us not forget, that the little cricket humbly sings too.
