White Noise

White noise for my sleep... The rigid alarm to tear me awake... Radio ramblings of foreign wars... The uneven wheels and squeaky brakes... The roosters crowing on a dew-kissed lawn... The brittle leaves rattling in the breeze... The sparse coins jingling in my pocket... The majestic silence of the trees... The chaos of a filled living room... The TV, the dog, and the chatter... The gentle breathing as you sleep... The noise of what really matters...
