Sound is a gift a special sense That allows us to connect to feel immense We can experience the world around Just by listening to the sound The laughter of a child so pure and bright The waves crashing onto the shore at night Birds chirping at the crack of dawn A gentle breeze ruffling leaves in the early morn The sound of music that stirs the heart Feeding the soul that’s been torn apart Whispered words of love and care Telling you someone is always there Hearing can go beyond just sound It is full of emotion and stories abound The cries of sorrow and sobs of pain All of the memories that still remain We must cherish this gift of noise For it is meant for us to enjoy This symphony of life’s grand play Let the sound lead the way.
