Fear

The breeze that once was has gone asleep
And the child's laugh hibernates
No one moves feet rooted to the ground
The human voice has withered out
And everything is still

Everything is still for a picture

The baby's cry has dwindled 
And dad's snore remains a memory
As the sun shines down
The sound of one man's heart subsides

The rustling leaves have been put to rest
And grandpa's whistling has expired
As the eyes wonder around
The dog's bark has ceased
