Special Sounds

Don't forget the special sounds you have heard in your life. Like the whisper of a child the cooing of your wife The sound that a bird makes as it sits outside your panes The pattering on the roof of a midsummer's rain. The sound of the ocean in a beach's shell The sound that a pebble makes down a water well. The sound of the wind rustling through the trees The sound that my heart makes each time you look at me. The sound you hear each morning of your sleeping lover's breath The sound of your lovers snoring when they go to bed. These are all the special sounds we sometimes take for granted For when they disappear Our lives are less romantic. Those special sounds around you they envelop and surround you They make your life worth living more joyful and more giving Learn to love all the sounds you hear every day You'll learn they make your life special in every way.
