dVerse Poets

Today I’d like you to write about noise of any kind. There are many ways you can approach the theme. It is up to you but here are a few ideas:

What do you consider to be noise pollution? Is there a buried emotion screaming to be heard? What noises give you joy? Sorrow? Bring us the noises of nature or a noise you find most irritating. Maybe there’s a sound of nature that you find irritating. I won’t judge! Fill your poem with noise to paint us a picture of an event. Use noise metaphorically to express turmoil or unease, whether internal or external. You can play with onomatopoeia in your poem if you’d like but it is not required. 

Now go find a quiet place and pen us a poem about noise.

Here’s how to join in:

noises disappear

drowned out by my dreamer’s thoughts

easy rests my mind

escaping into the dream

daily irritation fades
