The Sounds from Silence

Traveling to my small hometown in Arkansas reminded me of the joys of a less noisy existence. As my big-city son and I wandered outside my parent's home, he immediately observed the sights and sounds of nature.

Only when we disconnect from technology and choose to experience what nature offers can we fully appreciate the vibrant messages that we receive when we commit to engage in silence.

I offer my sounds from silence:

Buzzing
Splashing
Rustling
Crunching
Chirping
Gurgling
Bubbling
Squeaking
Croaking
Pealing
Cawing
Flapping
Blowing
Living
Flying
Clicking
Zipping
Popping
Swallowing
Squeaking

What are your sounds from silence?
