Noises are unbearable

It is now noisy at home
I do not like the noise from the television
Would I seem petty
If I were to assert myself
To switch it off?
I guess I shall just play my double bass

Just like using a practice mute
I do not like using ear plugs
They are helpful
Yet they block the beauty of the sounds
That I seek to hear

The world is a rather noisy place
I ask for a peaceful corner
To reflect
And to grow

Would the world be kinder please?
