Society Soundtrack

Teaspoons *****

Cups rattle

Water gushes

Cans pop

Steam shrieks

Laughter tinkles

Voices rise

Over the top

Fridges buzz

Bacon sizzles

Coffee drips

As gossip spreads

Tea brews

Cakes devoured

Oranges juiced

Knives shred

Papers rustle

Scones rise

Eyebrows lift

Voices fall

Toast crisps

Eggs bubble

Soup warms

One and all

The surface noise

Always concerned

With etiquette

And propriety

But underneath

Can be found

The sounds of

Café society
