Night Song

March 3, 2021
By Anonymous

Crickets chirp,

 Frogs croak,

    Cattle low in the fields.

Fish splash in the lake,

    Boats start up,

Sound of distant

train whistles.

Mothers call their children in.

    Bug zappers crackle and

mosquitoes buzz.

    Night song.

That's so evocative. You really create sound effects in this poem!
