Music Everywhere

Singing gently sneaks inward
often taking us unaware with
unusual new tones and nontones.
Note how wild wind flutters leaves
driving ears to stand and snatch
soft sounds of cool air tapping.

An unexpected blast booms when
boiled water readily rumbles
on key, sputters and splashes.
Uncap water’s playful plop
near full faucets or its wet
dramatic gush from hoses.

All without traditional
lyrics, these symphonies do
lull us into high humming.

A peek at a fire’s frenzy adds
radical sizzles ending
our samples of timed tempos.

Understand that to some mere
noise causes headaches, cringes
and inner storms, 
but others recognize airy,
drowning, liquid and burning
compositions.
