Violin is trembling
Trombone is sliding
Music fills the space and time
In house and school
Chit-chat in cars
on top of radio
Silence is hard to come by now days
Not like in days when I grew up
Sound was harder to find
until the black and white TV work its way in
with programs went to bed at 10:00PM
Did I stare at the ceiling afterwards
or played dirt before they started at 5:00PM
Did I sit on the front steps
listening to the breeze
swoosh through the silent community
in spring afternoon
or
listening to the mosquitoes
humming around
in the smothering summer night
They were all moments of cozy silence
I like to live through the ages
