A newborn crying when it’s just been born.
Ssshhh, mama whispers as the baby settles down.
The laughter of a family reunion that can be heard
miles away.
Children playing in the rain, splashing and jumping
as if life had no worries at all.
Animals communicating with one another, sending the
mind straight to the jungle.
The wind that gently caresses your skin and plays with
your hair.
A saxophone player soothing the soul of a crowd;
let it tingle down your spine.
A grandmother’s story about how she survived poverty
growing up.
The world around us carries sounds of the unknown.
The sound of love is everywhere, just listen closely,
embrace the moment and carry that sound in memory
Forever.
