Silences ...

This house echoes with silence, but in my mind's ear I still think I hear his chirps every now and then.

The cats are aware of his passing now. They stared for a while at the empty cage hanging from the living room ceiling. Now they ignore it.

There are no loosened seeds on the carpet when I sweep.

I brought his two white towels down from the bedroom yesterday and added them to the laundry basket.

I tossed some millet sticks but I will make a place to pour out the rest of his bagged seed for the backyard wild birds.

I must relocate his collection of water globe music boxes in the bedroom. Then I will bring the little table down here to host the turntable.

The routines change and life goes on.

But the silence is deafening.
