Silent Noise

I hope I make it through this month. There so many things I can think of to do but normally they would be put on a shelf for later or never thought of at all. This month I try to do as many as I think of and that is tiring. Right now I am painting the porch floor and cleaning everything I see. I hope this passes soon, I'm tired.

I wrote this recently:

Silent Noise

Bird chatter, cars whizzing
No human sounds
No animal sounds
Noise in the silence
Miss Gato appears at the screen door
Softly she approaches
Then disappears.
Somewhere in the yard
Crickets chirp
Adding to the silent cacophony.
Rain barely falls
Upon the silent noise
I wonder as we go about our lives
Are we all making silent noise?

Sweet Rose
