"The Cicadas Came Back"
One Night The Cicadas Came Back
All Shrill and shrilling in the jungle
Even a Katydid resonated through the muggy night
I feel their cries in my bones as if they were a God
a sleeping God awakened by Starlight and crying
shrilling their cries to an open-eared heaven
I pray that they cry the cries of earth and summer
I pray they teach the stars of this place i call home
I want to run through the night, taking it all into my heart
taking the summer night in my hometown into my heart
Lord, I know this place so well!
The Cicadas Came Back
And I Realised, that
I am No Longer Lonely!
In Jesus' Name,
Amen////
