The Unheard Noise

In a minute, he had vanished.
I blew in all directions to find him
But he was nowhere seen.
Then a boy came yelling,
Making everyone aware of a little hole.
Yes, it was a tiny hole;
Only with regards to its diameter.
Its depth, Oh! It was deep enough
For me to be unable to measure it.
Would you believe me
If I said the hole made noise?
But the hole did make noise.
Was it the hole or the boy within the hole?
It was a pretty loud noise;
That all of you’ll refused to hear
Until the noise completely stopped.
(Context: Children falling into borewells)
I was blowing around like any other day.
I was happily watching all the children play.
They were playing the freeze tag;
Hence, he was running to give them the unfreeze tag.
