Cacophony of the Keys

Cacophony of the Keys

 

 

 

a serenade of cicadas

outside my window

while inside fruit flies attach

to my screen

 

i type peach tree poems

with apricot rhymes

and then pear them down

to just a couple accents

two syllables of apple wonder

 

suddenly the serenade stops

and i am startled by the silence

there is no outside

no window

no me

 

just a wall of citrus climbing

and a small toad

hopping randomly

waiting for a song.

dear Jacob... I love your charming rendition of fruit serenading a
lover's innuendo's of undying love... the taste and luscious feelings...
peaches and apricots on toasty notes of random dreams in summer moments.
truly, Pat

This is wonderful! The wonder of mind...somtimes it is good to dream of beautiful things..but it is best if we wake up with such beauty around us.

this reminds me of those summer nights up at the cottage, listening the frogs as the sing.
mating songs
I wonder if man and frog both are lonely in this poem.
together, yet alone
