It's a perfectly crafted ode to silence. An atmosphere of serenity cultivated over the past several decades reflects in your life-style as well as in the interiors and exteriors of your home. The warmth of words can be felt. Thanks, Michael.

Blaring loud music is deafeningly distasteful to me and this awesome poem that appreciates the peaceful auietude of your lovely pictured home sweet home makes for fantastic poetry. Kudos I must say,
