sounds connect me to the world around me
from my sofa i hear the refrigerator churning out ice cubes
then the air conditioner cuts on dampening other noises until the temperature is regulated
outside i hear birds communicating in the early morning hours
squirrels are mostly quiet until they become territorial
dogs growl and bark announcing their presence
a lawn mower rumbles in the distance
a construction crew is jack hamering concrete not far down the street
horns honk as people rush to their jobs
a passenger plane departs from a nearby airport
and i am awake to the world around me
