the bump-bump bubbling of the boil
(of the kettle)

the splish-splish splashing of the tea
(of the teapot)

the crunch-crunch crunching of the surface
(of the biscuit)

the woosh-woosh wooshing of the wind
(of the earth)

the quiet, quiet silence of nothing
(of the interlude)

the thump-thump thumping of the steps
(of the people)
