Literature Text

Autumn evening falls
and there among the wild pinks
and in the kudzu,
I ask what he thinks,
the little insect chirping.

In the bush clover
they gather to sing their song,
In the pampas grass
they call there so long,
in the ague weed sweetly.

Throughout the twilight
dancing in the bellflower,
in the golden lace
singing the hour
As the darkness gathers in.

And yet their chirping
will pale into the background
when my eye sees you
a flash of light found
firefly silent in the night.
Written for a character in the Evil In Men's Hearts. The plants mentioned are the seven autumn grasses, a seasonal symbol.
