From "New Rain" by Rabindranath Tagore:
"It dances today, my heart, like a peacock it dances, it dances.
The woods vibrate with cicadas,
Rain soaks leaves,
The river roars nearer and nearer the village, O wildly
It dances today, my heart, like a peacock it dances."

I imagine you have seen cicadas before.
I had my first experience of them In MD a couple of years ago. Beautiful amber winged, brown bodied, orange-eyed and feather soft feet. So many they sounded like hundreds of ambualances in the distance. **CV
Great pic, and great poem!
Have you ever heard a peacock "sing?" Some crazy stuff! Their crowing is the wildest!
