Wafting room to room, carried on the air.
The sounds of a home are everywhere.
Televisions with cartoons and evening primetime shows.
Loud music eminating from turned-up stereos.
The noises of appliances, like a faint buzzing hum.
Pipe's gentle rattles, as the water is run.
Little childish voices float on down the halls.
Laughter and arguments, echo through the walls.
The opening and closing of various drawers.
The shutting and slamming of too many doors!
Footsteps and running heard overhead.
That telltale squeak of jumping on beds!
Ringing alarm clocks, timers and phones.
All of these distractions are the sounds of a home.
