Performance
by Emily Reed
Cascadas chirp to the rhythm
of the violent winds
Birds chime in with mellow melodies
as squirrels scurrying provides a
haphazard harmony.
Mighty gusts of wind tango passionately
with the crisp brown leaves
who have two left feet.
The leaves stomp on the mud-packed
ground, trying to shake it awake
from its extended slumber.
Loose sticks waltz gracefully with
lush grass until they step on the
toes of unruly leaves.
Trees rattle their limbs to the
beat of the thunderous
forest cacophony
as crickets applaud.
