HAIKU MY HEART: Summer Serenade



Inspirations:

flute concert
speaking Japanese fluently
the shakuhachi
by Jane Reichhold

sultry night
the sound of the shakuhachi
deepens the silence
by Chevrefeuille

My Haiku:
warm memories of yore
crickets serenading us
delight of fireflies

Hoosier Quote:
“When people hear good music, 
it makes them homesick 
for something they never had and never will have.”

Lovely Nonnie. Fireflies to light our way. I adore the sound of crickets, and cicadas. and anything else Mother Nature gives us. Especially night sounds.

Oh how I love your sweet symphony of crickets!
I love cricket serenades. Some people don't, but I do!
