Subject(s): Crickets


I like polka dots. And molasses. And Spanish antiques.
Perfumes. Spices. And mice!
Diamonds and sapphires. And silver, galore.
Beans. And butter. And rice!

I like maps. And garlic. And all furry things.
Music. And melons. And ham.
Color, and kittens. And fine intellect.
Circuses. And Cream. And lamb!

I like nature. And weeds. And an open fire.
Buckles and straps. And moonlight!
But best of all -- and it's silly and small.
I like to hear crickets.
At night!
