With each spring the peepers make their song
Slowly as the evenings warm their voices rise Signaling spring and the vibrancy of life around us. We lost a song this spring -- Gene's song. His note will climb with the others but rise upward to the heavens We notice it missing, but shall always remember the sound. A note that clings to us as we remain separated. A song that reminds of community and solidarity. A signal clear and piercing amid the noise. I shall always hear your song amid the evening song of the peepers You can continue to sing to me -- I will listen. Joseph Olejak
