Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep as the police van backs into it's parking spot
Rumrumrumrumrumrum as the garbage truck idles
Waaaaaghhhhh as the momma leaves the baby for work
Psssshhhhh as the radiator releases built up steam - yes, even in the summer...
These morning sounds are typical, frequently joined by a cacophony of voices as the cops change shifts. There are mornings the sounds get under my skin and I fight with myself to remain calm. There are other mornings, like today, when I embrace the uniquely New York sounds of the city waking up.
Though I'd thrill to hear the call of a seagull or the twitter of a songbird greeting the sun.
