The Classroom Symphony

The scratching of some busy pencils
The not-so-silent whispering
The shuffling of homework papers
The sound of binders zippering

A cough erupts into the room
and somebody just had to sneeze
footsteps pattering here and there
the typing of computer keys

The turning pages of a book
There is a pencil sharpening
Theses noises might seem simple but
This is the Classroom Symphony
