country

the earth resonates
pride for my country
a love, a fraternity
heard with the pulse of the grasshopper
and the cricket.
rushing like blades of grass
in an echo of the rhythm of the wind
the occasional song of a loon,
a bullfrog
interjects on this refrain
of the country, this country,
my country.
