Cicadas Sing

by Sugarray77

Cicadas sing in shadowed trees
in vacillating harmonies
   above green beds of spreading thyme
   embedded in a wooded clime
impassioned music fills the breeze

Damp, humid air with languid ease
entwines the notes by slow degrees
   old ballads sung in sultry rhyme
cicadas sing

With swelling, loud cacophonies
in concert with slow, droning bees
   their concentrated, blended chime
   share cadences that fall and climb
entrancing summer melodies
cicadas sing
