Some pebbles break, denude me of my breath
air tinkling with the voices of crickets
and grass hoppers spill over. Raise more calls!
When scientific explanation given for almost everything,
the silent mind come snorting out on the prowl
The earth's pandemonium gushes forth
The passions delve; the answer ricochets back
Like raindrops...tic...tic...tic. I listen to them- life surges in
Soil of the forest gives me tales of survivals.
