Noise by Jenny Anderson

Is my life ever truly silent?

There are no boys around

To sing and screech and

Run with tales.

Now the furnace has paused.

But there is still something. . .

This clock's incessant ticking,

Some motor running,

Something dripping,

Dog clicking.

 

Quiet! Everything!

 

I am trying to hear the Silence.
