CICADA 2013

CICADA 2013

-17 year Cicada renewal

The Cicada nestles in the cool earth

until some mysterious inner body clock

announces time for change.

Time to escape the ground

and make the journey upward,

to shed its skin,

and begin the truly living, but short portion

of its life.

Through song

Love

Metamorphosis,

Partnership

with Mother Earth

and trees,

the ultimate wisdom keepers.

Cicada,

True symbol of renewal,

and dedication to carrying on

through patience and persistence.
