No One Noticed The Noise


She lay there still

quiet in her flesh,

and her covering of skin

though her heart was drumming

loudly

and in her head she was screaming

louder

and louder still.

But still

her flesh

and skin

were quiet.

Those parts that can be seen

were quiet.


So no one noticed the noise.

  Getting Better Things can only get better, that’s what she always told her little sister. Things are getting better all the time even though it doesn’t feel that way. So eat it up! It’s important as Jane Eyre said, to keep in good health and not die. So eat it up. And save a little for the cat. https://thedrabble.wordpress.com/2022/01/12/getting-better/?fbclid=IwAR3hCtjd2q1CtdDOLr_RcCH2u-RtaPzjQSQ_ELWMN3kcpMaIxJRM_9u_z_o

  Let’s Dance “I’ve been dancing in the rain,” you said. You didn’t need to tell me, I’d seen you in the distance doing your Gene Kelly thing and more than looking the part. Perhaps I should tell you to act your age but I’ve given up on that. And I won’t tell you to dress your age. You’ll never dress in old women’s clothes. And I’m glad about that. Orange and pink are grand and Gene Kelly would be lost in an envy of black and white regrets. So jump in and I’ll give you a lift to get you out of the rain. Or maybe I’ll park up and join you in a dance even though it’s raining and I’m not dressed for it. Yes, I think I will! https://visualverse.org/submissions/lets-dance/

Chill I close my eyes and listen to the birds. I can’t name them, but it doesn’t matter, I can still feast on their song. Song, well some sing beautifully, others need to learn. I sympathise with them, I can’t sing either, but there’s no shame It doesn’t matter. There’s no one to hear me if I join in. http://moonmagazine.org/lynn-white-chill-2017-08-04/ http://moonmagazine.org/lynn-white-chill-2017-08-04/ Lynn White | Chill - The MOON magazine I close my eyes and listen to the birds.
