SOUNDS

My Muse has popped in to prompt me to write some thoughts down.

                 SOUNDS ...

so clear takes rest in human ear,

a sense we oft take for granted

yet we rely on these vibes to 'be'.

Hear the ripple of the running brook,

      with fish that you can cook.

Listen to the romance of dawn chorus,

  the crackle of wheels on its tracks.

The echoes from valleys deep and wide.

The crashings of angry seas against pilgrim rocks.

Wild flowers convey the sweetest sounds

        from insects that flit around.

All these we should appreciate as we put 

        our feet firmly on the ground!

Author's Note

Listen carefully and pick up the most important sounds that can be music to the human ear.

i have listened.. i still do...reminds me of waking up in the early morning in Vermont ...best sounds i have ever heard...the bob whites...the whipperwills...the cows mooing...
and on a very peaceful, quiet night now...i still hear those sounds.
thanks for the memories.

In the stillness of my chosen space, i am able to 'be' nothing should come between me and thee~ could be my creator or a loved one! Thank you Jacob for your significant review. Have a lovely week end.

i cannot imagine a silent world Kitty, how dreadful it must be for those with no hearing.

so many tones and vibrations to communicate with and enjoy..

Luckinly we are 'blessed' with five senses! Thanks Stella for visiting on this glorious Sun-day! I have tinnatus in the right ear so I am never without 'sound' . I agree it would be dreadful if there was no sound. Have a lovely day.

dear Kitty, You took me into one meditation journey, Your first line is like pure magic "so clear takes rest in human ear", calmness and peace pouring from Your words, so very lovely, and may Your muse keeps on "popping" and prompts You to write some thoughts down.

I hope she does but you never know. Thanks for posting such meaningful pieces.

To many years in construction has seriously impacted on my hearing, to the point now where my wife often claims it is more a case of me being "selective" than part deaf when I totally ignore her :)))
It is nice to escape the hustle and bustle, usually with the pooch, and take in the sights and sounds of this beautiful planet.
Good morning Kitty

This is a for and against scenario. A friend of mine uses a hearing aid: she sometimes pretends she has heard when she hasnt to save embarassment but then again it is frustrating when she really wants to hear. Being hearing impaired heightens one's other senses .be glad of that eh! Have a lovely week end, my friend!
