Notes About The Poem

Contest: Free Verse - Old Or New
Sponsor: Joseph May

Wind Chimes

I hear them... their sweet lullaby
     strummed by a gentle breeze.
How lovely, this fine summer day,
     wind blowing through my hair,
listening to restful wind chimes
     play their gentle, mystic tunes
as if singing to the mountains,
     and answering the birds,
sending secret messages to all...
     please enjoy this perfect day.
Their soft tinkling, ringing echoes
     the beauty in the meadow, and
the clarity of sky, as the slow ballet 
     of tree limbs sway and bow 
to the fine music that they play.
     The wind chimes give me joy
as soft breezes set them free; 
     they play and sing and dance...
conducting joy within my heart
     and peace inside my soul.
