Noise

One Gift Which Led Us Back

Children run, laugh, and fall onto the floor.

Teens hang around and discuss whatever.

Old faces reconnect with such great joy

It could seriously make your ears ring.

Noise fills the room enough to shake the house,

Leaving little chance to read a good book,

Write the next Great American Novel,

Or even hear the thoughts in your own head.

The whole thing will exhaust you by its end

But always leave you wanting even more.
