In Defense of Hums

A hum is not a noise

Or just a silly sound

For a hum has hidden passions

and lives a life profound

It’s born when deep within

the Soul abounds a feeling

Trust mingled with affection,

admiration, cheer, and healing

I’ve heard a hum is happiest when

two hands are clasping tight

Swinging in the sunshine

basking in delight

I’ve even known a hum to dream

While lingering in the air

And calling forth the future

a hum can take us there

A hum is happy and wise

it can teach us many things, you see

And if you listen closely

My hums are meant for thee
