“Imagine,” he said, “the magic of pretending, whether one is in bed or on a mountaintop. —quote by poet The rush of wind, and hush of chimes, between breaths. Full sun carries no tune; it tarries, stimulates my too pale face. To sail, to sigh; shells on the beach. I bury my feet in crush of waves, deceptive suds. Flood of feelings; momentum of time displacement. Floating, glistening. My eyes confused, maligning sight. One thing is true: the rush of wind, the hush of chimes; and there is more - the sun does not play lyre; or flute.

What a beautiful poem. Right from the beginning with the quote "whether one is in bed or on a mountaintop" ~ the image that came to mind was a paraplegic... As I read the poem I could appreciate how these verses would be soothing and inspiring. Beautiful ! A FAVE for me.

What an interesting concept "rush of wind with the hush of chimes" - the poem is very haunting, seeing you there on the beach. It almost has a sense of aloneness; it's beautiful

We sail on the wings of dreams. Without dreams, there is no joy in life. "The rush of wind, and hush of chimes, between breaths." Love the beautiful opening to your poem, Kim.

Quite an imaginative write, Kim! Wish my mind cold produce such dreams. Mine are mostly 'horror-type shows.' Don't even want to sleep much anymore, really. Oh, well...

Where would we be without dreams, of both the sleeping and waking kind?! I enjoyed this wonderful excursion, Kim!

- The wind often has a great melody on its flute - The sun actually has its own song Kim, but is impossible for humans to hear :) - A lovely poem :) - hugs

I agree, Kim. The sun doesn't play an instrument. It just sends those fierce rays. Thanks for sharing. I like this one. Sara K
