Gentle Sounds

Gentle Sounds Night time calling me linen envelopes in nests of cotton threads sudden curtains fluttering in empty space's upon reflected headlights on rose printed walls and rain scented metal of people carriers down curiosity roads with sleepy engine hums of lullaby's gentle sounds

Gentle sounds stand out in a noisy world. they say noisy classrooms do not produce confident kids as when things are noisy they rely on the teacher instead of thinking for themselves and looking for answers. I was an early childhood teacher for thirty years so read the research.
