August 7- Season Shift

A gathering of acorns

I noticed that it sounds different than it did a couple of weeks ago, there is a high insect hum in the mornings, and nights are now full of katydids and crickets whirring and chirping.
Sounds are what tell me when I am in the season.
A shift in tone or tenor will register in my less conscious mind and soon I will begin to see the changes around me.
We have lived here for 13 years now,
plenty of time to get to know the music of the place, the rhythm shifts of the seasons, cycles of sound,
the same song played differently year after year.
