I love the sound of electric charges surging through power lines
The sound of sleek pavements hissing after the rain as cars pass by
The crunch of dried leaves as you walk in autumn
The rolling thud of skateboard wheels against the sidewalk
The static undertones when playing old records
The sound of guitar speakers when you plug it on
The clinking of wine glasses when the waiter cleans your table
Even the click of every key on my Blackberry cell phone.
I love the sizzling sound that the frying pan makes for breakfast
(Even more so the smell it makes in the morning)
The crisp sound of rustling leaves as the wind tickles them
The BART howling through the tunnel when it’s coming
The little door chime when you enter the local coffee shop
The waves crashing through the shore line
The flap of BAYAN flags when the wind between buildings catches them
The clicks that my Canon 50D shutter makes
And remember the sound of Kodak film when it starts rewinding? Hah!
I love the sound of keys when I grab them from my purse
The scratch of newly sharpened pencil on test papers
The deep bass line in the club that you can even feel in your bones
The sound of Lincecum’s pitch hitting Molina’s glove (when he was still a Giant not a Ranger)
The icy crush of your spoon against your freshly made halo halo
The satisfying pop when you finally open that jar of pickles
The slobbery slurp that Jasper (a dog) makes when he’s really thirsty
Even the silence after the banter on the dinner table.
Especially the silence, after any banter even if it’s not on the dinner table.
