This Sound

By Christina Joy Turnipseed   

The sound of a thousand horses running wild
The wiles of a dozen hyenas surrounding a prey
The prayers of a hundred, thousand saints
Saints fans, cheering by the thousands at a game
Herds of game animals, stomping the African plains
Planes landing and lifting from a crowded runway
Gangs running away from gunshots of other gangs
Gains in a busy gym causing grunts to escape
Escaping to a quiet, peaceful place to recuperate
Quiet…, this sound is the greatest of all sounds made
