Hi

LOL you do have a noisy household. Mine used to be but since my oldest son has left, I don't have 20 kids here anymore. It went from the hang out house to really quite. I got three other kids, but he was the noisiest from all of them.

Great job this is a very strong entry I feel. Good Luck :)

Regards
Tia

What an intriguing picture that establishes the mood for your poem well! I certainly imagined the noise with the help of your choice of words and your rhymes. Best wishes in the Cacophony Poem contest- Joan

I really enjoyed reading this poem and think you did a wonderful job bringing to life all of the noises. It can be so frustrating when the world will not be quiet!
Nice job,
Julie

Great use of sound! "big boy's toys" and "guns booming" and "race cars zooming" -- just fantastic! And I really like the last stanza, nature's noises... Excellent format, rhythm is smooth, rhyme is great. This is a terrific entry into this writing prompt contest! Very well penned!!!!

A very well-written cacaphony poem. Some people are only happy and jolly when everything is noisy around them with loud music playing and people talking while showing off their car's noisy engines.

I like the poem's tempo. Lots if energya coming through the lines. Seemed like a race car itself speeding in a 25 MPH zone. Better watch out out because poem police use radar here. Lots of poem speed traps.

Yep, I can definitely hear the jarring sounds within your words. Well done!
The font and italic format blends well with the words you describe in your poem. A couple of guys having fun regardless the notes are played all wrong.
Best of luck in the contest!
