Noises Poems - Poems about Noises

afternoon noises

a train whistle
motorcycle starting up
rumble of road
tiny sounds of a wind chime
distant door being closed
far off conversation
we sit together, the sun and I
conversing telepathically
listening to afternoon noises

From the Balcony

Distant noises in the morning
Distant morning spread its flair
Got no learning from the yearning
Boys are riding boards out there
Something metal knocks on metal
Birds are flapping down and up
I take off the whistling kettle
For the instant coffee cup
Comes a rare span of silence
And among the flowers I
Sit and gaze at floating islands,
Formless islands in the sky.

63        The noises of Paris


There comes an age and wisdom,
When it is more interesting 
To listen to Shostakovich’s symphony number five,
Than to be interested in the noises of Paris,

There comes an age and wisdom,
When it is more rewarding
To marvel at Chagall or Goya 
Than to be interested in

The After Time

The voices of others were becoming noises day by day.
Even if I wanted to be alone there was no way.
All were happy but I felt betrayed.
Although life was stable and good, 
But that scar made me cry each day.
I never felt this in my life and want to heal with time, but can't because I

Cell Phone Noises and Me

We are in a doctor’s waiting room.
A child’s cell phone is out; the sounds drive me batty. 
Botta Bing  Botta Bing
Ding Sing Shing Wing Ding
How does this child’s parent stand it?
I wish the child’s parent would put a stop to it.
I do not say a word, knowing people the way I do.

I wonder which

Mysterious Rumbling Noises

Mysterious rumbling noises, I hear them
Wherever I am, I cannot escape the sound
Somewhat like zombies singing an old hymn
Or a loaded barge about to run aground.
Occasionally they will go away for a season
Then, just as suddenly, they will reappear
There seems to be neither rhyme nor reason
A friend suggested I’ve had too much beer
I laugh and

The Noises From Neighborhood

I wonder, whom they might be?
I wish to know at least a person.
I wonder, when do they sleep? 
I wish I could visit once to know in person.
I wonder how will their next room be? 
I wish I could stop them to go on.
I wonder, how far they'll go on? 
I wish for a sounds

Strange Bum Noises

Please don't do that, it's really quite weird
Don't make those noises, it twitches my ears
Reminds me of Dracula
Or an angry tarantula
Emitting strange shrieks from the end that's rear

Animal Noises

Ta wit ta woo said the owl to the wren 
Cluck cluck cluck replied the dear old hen
Woof woof woof the doggie did bark 
All these animals are leaving their mark 

The horse let out a very long neigh 
A cow replied moo is all he could say
Several ducks on the water said quack
To which

Jack Hammer Noises

Strange Noises

There it goes again, did you hear that bump
Spooky sounds in the night, make my heart pump
Racing a mile a minute
Seeing a shadowy image
Imagination plays tricks as we fart out our bum

Abandonment and Loud Noises

The year was 1946...


Grandfather, on my dad's side, chemistry professor at the Ann Arbor Campus of the University of Michigan had just finished his tenure, completing his service to our country in the reserve as a full-bird Colonel in the US Army during WW 2 as Base Commander at Fort Benning during the build up

Loud Noises

Is it age that's affecting my hearing 
Loud noises drive me up to the ceiling
They seem magnified
Contemplate suicide
Or one of those things, no hard feelings
