Best Chime Poems

I've somehow pondered about the 
   rush of air
of how I could be lulled on billows, and  
   yet, 
its notes upon my flesh eludes me--
as if in midnight trailing, weeping in refrains
this cadence glides beyond

Lithesome steps lead me to an ancient 
 temple 
Perched across a bay, weeds and 
  hyacinths curl between my feet, 
Where mist refills bowl of cotton clouds 
As rustling breeze ascends on skyline's ladder.
 In stillness, I lounge on the pew to whisper...

 A note rides on a Sonnet's rhyme
 And travels on to Shakespeare's quill
 A bird sings with nature's chime
 Its melody fluttering in the sunlight still

 Inspiration takes us to starry skies
 Where the seven muses roam
 Luna then begins its rise
 and glimmers...

The little legs of my wind chimes
         dangle, and giggle a nervous tune
         each time a soft breeze tickles

When something stirs within the heart
 And kindles a flame of desire
 Feelings blaze up as it starts
 As you feel the warmth of love's fire

 There is a song in heartbeats chime
 As this melody you embrace
 Compose a poem of lovely rhymes

this clock on the wall, echoes through my heart's lonely walls
it laughs in seconds the pulsation of years long past
its hands stroke the circumference of my soul it thralls
it writhes against my memories in an outward cast

if only to rewind this torturous menace of time

Wind Chime

I have this old broken wind chime
Hanging with a few hollow pieces left.
Still playing a beautiful soft melody
With slight breeze the wind leaves behind.
The sound is high and low, like life.
We have the spectrum of it all.
Broken we may be at times
And we still...

The wind-chime tree 
 is singing in heavenly voice,
 there are Angels beneath the golden rusty
 red leaves,
 There singing out in Harmony 
 a slow and sad ;'hymn in the soft
 breeze 
 I lolled into the peacefulness 
 I kick back in my...

Spirit wind passes by ---
A warm melodious song....

As she gently rocks on her front porch
lingering breeze caresses her cheeks
his pretty wind chime gift sounds upbeat
although nostalgic memories make her weep

Lingering breeze caresses her cheeks
growing loneliness she is quite aware
his sudden death caused an empty seat
his pretty wind chime gift sounds upbeat

Growing loneliness...

How do I deserve the treasure
Of your nightly presence,
Holding me, welcoming me
To this bed that we share,
Where cares of the day
Are sponged away by downy comfort?
Never have I experienced such
Freedom in a relationship.
Receptivity is your middle name,
Giving to me is your essence.

My Love, who first...

It came around in time.
Not a pewter dime but your silver chime

delighting the eyes of a sleep-deprived moth,
awakened from nightmares in chloroform froth.

Each muttered lie which lessens the blind,
(that my eyes, yet blinking, chased once behind)

whose stale shriek of shekels tempt tender-throats’ trust
(from far-reaching lecterns...

Of all the chimes, it was the third,
And this I well recall--
It was the saddest sound I've heard,
And the loneliest of all.

Grandfather Clock

     When I was young, not four foot tall,
     My Grandpa’s clock I remember well	
     Stood and chimed, alone in the hall
     When I was young, not four...
