Darkness, it comes every night <br />The sounds come with it. <br />There are crickets humming, <br />And twigs falling making a thud on the roof. <br /> <br />The roar of a train, the rush of the creek, <br />The tap, tap, tap of the keyboard typing. <br />The buzz of my laptop and the sounds of the TV. <br />The soft, slow howl of the wind. <br /> <br />The sounds of darkness may differ with seasons <br />But no matter what time or day <br />The sounds will come. <br /> <br />The roar of a train, the rush of the creek, <br />The tap, tap, tap of the keyboard typing. <br />The buzz of my laptop and the sounds of the TV. <br />The soft, slow howl of the wind<br /><br />Maddie Shanahan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-sounds-of-darkness/
