A sinking sun sets the mood, o’er the mountains

The last bell chimes, and silence fills the lands

Peacefulness reigns, with the dimming light

Which cast its shadows, across the sands

A haze falls over the country, like a slumber

Not even the chirp of crickets can be heard

And as night settles in, and day slips away

The colors of the sky, become serenely blurred

As darkness fell, the crickets sang

Birds fell silent, nothing rang

Just the rustle of leafy trees

Bowing to the gentle breeze

A coolness in the air was felt

As suddenly, the sun would melt

Into one, when the moon did cover

Taking her, as his daytime lover

The soulful sound of crickets sing
As summer starts to fade
Skies begin to turn to gray
The leaves, no longer jade

Songs of chirping birds
That lingered in the trees
Are now the haunting melodies
Imprisoned in the breeze

The autumn air, enticing
It calls me out to play
To welcome in the changes
As Fall returns this day

Crickets serenade

Bidding farewell to summer

Their lament in song
