Listening To Crickets Poem by Liilia Talts Morrison
Listening To Crickets
Some depend on chariots
others count on horses
there are those whose sails run smooth
others court dark forces
i was never one to trust
chariots or horses
neither did I venture forth
tempting risky courses
By the wayside was my path
hiding in the thickets
tracking errant dragonflies
listening to crickets
Seems the world has passed me by
in their march to somewhere
traveling on well paved roads
ever heading elsewhere
Some depend on chariots
others count on horses
there are those whose sails run smooth
others court dark forces.
very interesting poem...who could be crickets? I have my own cricket.

I also walked 'by the wayside', I totally understand and share your feeling on the simple, sweet pleasure of listening to crickets, simply gorgeous, Liilia, simply gorgeous! !
