Word of the Day
susurrus (n)
A sound like rustling or whispering
"Gentle winds had lulled the swell and the continual susurrus of the south wind enticed them towards the deep."
--Virgil, The Aeneid
I like "white noise", and the susurrus of a white noise CD I have often entices me towards the deep -- deep sleep, that is.
