Have you ever heard the saying “That’s music to my ears”?
It’s a common remark when someone hears a piece of good news.
But if you think about it, we sometimes encounter sounds in nature that are as lovely as music. Birds singing softly in the morning. Leaves rustling in the wind. Or the mellifluous (see definition below) flow of water cascading down a river. It’s not the kind of music you’ll hear on the radio, but it’s definitely worth listening to as often as you can!
Speak Your Mind: What can you think of that’s mellifluous?
MELLIFLUOUS: Sweet or pleasant sounding.

I like the sound of snow crackling under my feet
We love that sound, too! Traipsing across a pristine blanket of snow is one of our favorite things to do. Does anyone else have a mellifluous sound to add to Anders’ submission?
