Did You Hear That?

Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?

A tinkling.
A chiming.
A breathtaking clinking.

Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?

A hum.
A drone.
A siren singing.

Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?

A whistle.
A click.
A whale echoing.

Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?

A splish.
A splash.
The ocean applauding.

Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?

A howl.
A rustling.
The wind agreeing.

Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?

A cheer.
A laugh.
The sound of the world’s beckoning.
