The Sound of Silence

Well, as we come to this week's Haiku, I must confess that my mind has been consumed with all things real estate related. Aaron and I've been nearly killing ourselves to get our home ready to put on the market . . . and now that it is? Well, nothing. Silence.

Actually, that's not entirely true. We have been receiving abundant harassing, annoying phone calls from realtors, looking to capitalize on fear and this depressed market by trying to lure me into listing the home with them rather than going the "by owner" route. It's SO annoying! Last time around, our little townhouse sold within about 48 hours, so dealing with these daily phone calls is new territory for me. It may be a long 2-3 months . . . !

With that background in mind, here's today's poem. Hope you are enjoying the lovely warm weather, and surviving the pollen!

The Sound of Silence

Balanced on the edge,

I listen as the pin drops--

The sound of silence.
