Home alone. 5 minute free write prompt.

in #poetry6 years ago (edited)

That beautiful sound,
The buz of nothingness
The only time,
To welcomed tinnitus.

Not having to compete
With the noise and din
No TV or shouting
Or stories chimed in.

Deep breath then exhale
Just chill on the couch,
Working the groove
Relax in a slouch.

Not guilty of chores left
Or disengaged play,
Ignoring the pile of clothes
Lost in the haze.

No eager expectant eyes
No boredom to kill,

No grunts of disgust
From the older ones will...

...5 minutes goes fast.

This is a five minute free write exercise. It's been a while since I did one. Thanks @mariannewest
It's always fun.

Sort:  

I'm married to a tinnitus suffering musician. You nail they issue of "silence" on the head.

It drives me crazy. Some times I can't hear so well because of it. It changes pitch if I press on my jaw and neck too.😩

Nice poem, you made me smile! Feel the same about being home alone, quiet and relaxed.
I will report this post for the weekly #freewritepoetrydigest

Home alone without thingking about works is the best relax ever that we need

Lovely one! Deserved relax 😉

A respite to so much exterior ... Relaxation deserved. Regards, @girlbeforemirror. Blessings!

Every mommy needs a few moments of that everyday. I went with you GBM:)Great write:)

It's really beautiful

Very well composed for a five minute write! Silence is precious, savour every minute of it because there's always something coming round the bend :)

Nice one. In just 5 minutes!?! Impossible for me... #ThumbsUp

The meter and rhythm is all wrong. It is a good for the perfectionist side to just leave it and post. Almost rhyming ideas with a messy construction.

Good explanation :) Maybe i will try it sometime...
