The noisy clatter that cocoons us in a busy life ,can sometimes, silence our thoughts and words.
It would be only wise to speak OUT , lest we become victims of this cacophony that would unfortunately leave us, unheard.
The perturbing buzz
Of the surrounding cacophony
And I feel engulfed.
The unending jabber,
Of the countless folks
Walking past me,
the aggravating noise
Of the transport,
and I feel deafened.
The little tantrum,
Of the untimely worries,
arousing in my head;
They mute me.
The unanswered murmurs
Of the swaying trees,
The intimidating rumble
Of the thunder,
The lively gush
Of the pouring rain,
The mindless chatter
Of the gullible birds,
The unsettling cries
Of the timid animals,
and I’m silenced,
by all this clamor.
My breath catches
In my throat.
And my voice,
Ever so shallow.
I quietly wonder,
To myself,
–Am I heard?
If only!
