Sounds

<>looking around..

for a familiar sound

sound of crying of new-born child

barking of Hound; scary and wild

song of birds chirping by

sound of planes flying high

bang of lightening thunder and hail

roaring of monstrous winds of gale

call of a friend from far about

too much tempting to rush out

chant of the seas deep ; sacred

knock on the door ; anxiously awaited

the SOS of a ship ; sinking

silent whistle of a star blinking

voice of the soul telling to do good

looking around for music of manhood !
