For the Cricket with the One Broken Leg

Choked up
coming to tears
for the cricket with
the one broken leg

Stefan laid him to rest in the grass

a deep sigh, a hushed gasp

goodbye sable coated mini minstrel
thanks for the many songs shared

sound of jets salute overhead
ongoing journey of a soul

the night now silenced in mourning
