Onomatopoeia
March 25, 2015
Vroom, hiss, bark, buzz, boom, bang, thud, screech.
The world of many noises.
A world that sounds
Nothing but busy and alive,
Even when it’s quiet
It’s not.
The sounds of wind hitting
A closed window
-Whistle-
The sound of wind
Through air,
-Swoosh-
Water with waves
Hitting rocks and falling off the sides of cliffs.
-Splash-
The sound of leaves
Moving through trees & bushes
-Rustle-
The world is a busy place,
Filled with noise.
Even when it’s quiet . . .
It’s loud.
