Lara Wash Poet Prose Poetry

Sound and Noise

The sound of rain pattering on the window panes
The noise of a loud lawn mower early in the morning
They both have a different affect on the brain

The sound of good news when one is feeling blasé
The noise of an AR-15 implies that people are running away

The sound of a baby’s first cry let us know there is new life
The noise of a growling dog warns us to not take that noise light

The sound of laughter can be music to the ears
And the noise of chatter diminishes one’s cheer
