This work has reached the exceptional level
Is this heaven or hell?

Sound

by Kazzawin

Invigorated by the shrill
of calls and cries from birds at will.
Such strong retort her ears receive
In mocking jest of no reprieve.
The thickness of the air hangs low
Yet through it she no voice can throw.
So captivated by her plight
Those wingéd creatures scrap and fight.
Without her eyes and tortured tongue
Her drums vibrate with every song.
Sweet child possessed of only they
Will 'ere embrace each loud affray.



Rhyming Poem contest entry


I encountered a blind girl who could not speak.
I have no knowledge of how she experiences life but she did respond to the sounds around her. I wondered if that is always a good thing but she seemed happy : )

Thanks to DrCarlton for the use of the powerful image.
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
