There's no need for us to be so noisy.


Poem Artwork

Read this poem with a whisper.
There is enough noise in the world.
You may have trouble hearing me
As you are not used to the low volume.

Maybe between whispers
If I drop a pin
You may hear it drop
On this wooden floor.

Why shout
When a normal tone is adequate?
You can still get your point across
With a whisper.

Although it is read internally that does not necessarily equate to silence. You've made a most erudite point. There are times when I'm reading or righting and for some reason the volume is turned to max.

"A silent answer turns away wrath."

Unfortunately, not with my hearing. Can no longer hear whispers and do need to have people speak up when talking to me. As far as noise goes, I still hear that very well.

We do live in a noisy world, don't we?

Eh . . . How about reading it silently, which is what we all do anyway.
