Response April 2022 PAD Challenge 25-1

 New Morning Sounds

 

Now in Colorado,

after driving through a dust storm.

I sit in my comfy recliner

and listen

while I thank God for a safe trip,

the family times in Nebraska,

South Dakota, Florida and Arizona.

I listen

the ringing in my ears is still there.

The whir of the heater.

Colorado is a lot colder than Phoenix.

An occasional growl or whoosh

of a car or truck going by.

The hum of traffic on the distant highway.

The tap, tap, tap of my laptop keys.

The click of the door. Hubby is up.

Thankful to be back home.
