The Chimes Nursery Rhyme
Outside the wide window by the meadow,
hang seven steel rods with metallic glow.
You bind them in a row, get them designed
as wind chimes, ringing the rhymes that spellbind.
The southern wind blows across pleasantly,
you listen joyfully its melody,
that wafts merrily in the scented air,
the chimes shares the ripples of gleeful flair.
In the gleam of twilight, the nests in sight,
the birds flap the tired wings in their last flight.
For them the chimes sings the enticing song,
the tunes cascading from its swing prolong.
Melted cloud drains the mist from the sky pane,
the chimes echoes the music of the rain,
creates the aura of fine symphony,
the concert entrances you instantly.
