Brassy little boys waiting to the very last minute when the outstretched rope reaches it precipice before launching.

Soon darkness will take over. Alone, once again, to face the hush that cascades over the land. No vehicles. No people. No urban light. Only the tranquil sound of nothing as the day fades.

How loud this sound of quiet is. Carrot Ranch Flash Fiction Prompt - August 3, 2016 - write a story that includes the sense of sound.
