Sounds of Life (Sonnet)


As I dwell in my stimulating world
filled with motion, sound and vibration,
and I prick up my tiny foetal ears
to assemble each garbled aberration

I react to my mother’s gentle voice
reposing to her constant whooshing blood,
I’m soothed by her systematic heartbeat
nurtured like a tender flower bud

Sweet music brings a pleasure to my soul
the muffled strains I hear are sure and rife,
for its rhythm rocks the fundus of my heart
to me these are the vital sounds of life.

These audibles I gather and embrace
the womb can be a very noisy place.
