DM Babbit Poet Couplet

Hums

There is that repetitious hum
 as clothes in the wash are spun,

the fridge plays some offbeat melody
 while you struggle to find something good on tv;

for a moment there is that ring
 of telephone marketers selling everything

all they really want to get
 is your credit card number to put you in deeper debt;

step outside and breathe in fresh air
 a hum will rise escaping all care,

so don't despair

 a tune, a song, some mixed blend
 can bring you calm and be your best friend.
