Onomatopoeia

Sipping sangria I ponder this thing called onomatopoeia Tinkling wind chimes. The echoing ping- plates placed one on another and other such sounds. The bong of steel bells. The beep beep beeping- a phone off its hook. And I am blessed to belong to such melodious sounds. And I feel for the ears of those who can't hear.

Thanks for letting me ponder the sounds we take for granted that deaf ears are unable to experience.
