Sounds

Have you ever heard the sound that silence stirs it is a sound like no other…as if nothing could possibly ever own an echo a pair of feet going the wrong way on life’s clearly marked paths Have you ever heard the sound of someone trying not to breath no air in…no air out…no air out…no air in…no risk…no gain…nothing ventured…or lost almost as if life itself enjoys the mockery….no life in…no life out..no winner…no loser Have you ever heard the sound of someone slipping through the cracks for one brief second a desperate plea of some sort wrangles your audience save me….grab me….if you save one person in your life…let it be me….let it be today Have you ever heard the sound of a whysp wandering idly a gentle swish surrounds a moment not quite ready to be more than a tic or a toc more…more than what……what can a whysp possibly wish to be… ....listen closely Irish
