Joanna Daniel Poet Limerick

Noisy Neighbours

Sandwiched between noisy neighbours 
We hear them putting their labours
In screaming matches 
Boisterous snatches
Seems like they're fighting with sabers 

I wish we had placed soundproof glass 
So that no sound, no noise can pass
All would be quiet 
Unlike the riot
Our neighbours create and trespass

Vijay Pandit March 20, 2021 at 6:17 AM I hear those noisy neighbors through your eloquent write, Jo--you speak for many in big cities who have this same experience.

Victor Buhagiar March 20, 2021 at 2:17 AM I wish I could sound proof my house.

L Milton Hankins March 19, 2021 at 8:51 PM Luckily, I don't live that near aggravating neighbors, but you wouldn't believe what I've heard through thin motel walls! Thanks for your work on this, Jo. Sometimes you wonder if they would behave like this if they knew they were being heard.
