Carrie Richards Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Nocturne -- Infinitians

No one stirs the night, but the wind

Old wind chimes play to the moon

Caught in the breeze they swoon

to soothe the dark night...

Used to lure sleep

Reap  dreams from

night with

ease

Connie Marcum Wong October 18, 2015 at 12:56 PM We have windchimes front and back of our home Carrie. The chimes in back my husband made himself and they have a rich deep tone. We live on a windy hillside so they lull us to sleep. This lovely poem is a fave for me. Congratulations on your first place win! #7
