Sentiō

A friend listed her favourite sounds in a post. It was cool and I thought I'd come up with my own list : )
  • The crunch of tires on gravel and the soft hum of a car slicing through the thick early-morning silence.
  • The reflective silence of church buildings and the hush that blankets a sleeping street.
  • The slightly contorted sound of rain as perceived from that region halfway between slumber and waking.
  • The sound of crashing waves.
  • The sizzle of garlic.
  • The wind caught among the branches of trees.
  • A child's breathing as he rests his head on your shoulder.
  • The many bastardized forms of your name.
  • The tapping sound of the keyboard.
  • The collective sound of your friends' laughter.
  • The gurgle of a mountain stream (the one behind my grandpa's place).
