Premium MemberThe Toll of a Single Bell Chime

A bell tolls — with a single chime.
Igniting the spell of dawn’s regret.
It halts the breath, suspends all time,
Foreboding with threats you can't forget.

You flinch—one foot on the stepping stone,
The wind's first touch scalds your face.
Just one finger grips your hand alone.
You wait for relief from bell’s disgrace.

The silence palls where echoes die—
The ring bell

Premium MemberOld Hands Chime Twelve

Old hands counted fingers to define,
That the hours in a day chime twice twelve,
That the months in a year toll what the old hands told.
Twelve apostles, tribes and days of Christmas do unfold
Twelve jurors decide, the twelfth is the hanged man card, 
12 inches make a foot, 12 notes in an octave for a song

Broken Wind Chime 

 

The broken wind chime played one note at a time 

In the soft, blowing, evening breeze 

Still, it’s tune was relaxing and pretty 

A reminder, to slow down, to pace yourself 

          - It ends with a beautiful result - 

A song

Premium Membertiny chime sound

I sit in the sun like a happy giant cat
My dogs have found shade
A tiny chime dings in a pretty way
Dogs sleep through this dainty sound
Does it bring a faerie to their dreams?
I will ask them later

BREATHE

Announcing her swift arrival, hanging chimes sing
gentle breeze of calmness by pure soft harmonic tones 
as my adrenaline rush amidst the loud chaos erupting
eagerly stepping outside to feel her presences of grace 
gently caressing my skin as she flow threw my hair
feeling a sense of serenade and swaddle as I breathe 
aligning and balancing the

Left Somewhere Between Love and Loneliness

In twilight's hollow, where shadows play,
I find myself lost, in a heart's gray day.
A soul once afire, with love's pure flame,
Now flickers faintly, in loneliness's cold frame.

In secret gardens, where memories reside,
Our laughter echoes, a haunting, mournful tide.
The ghosts of our whispers, the shadows of our past,
Torment my waking, and forever will last.

Like autumn's leaves,

The Edge of Time

I’m sitting on the edge of time
For just a disembodied pause,
While pointed hands o’er rounded chime
Obey the pendulum’s swayed cause.

Where kinetics’ course is lastly laid,
Comes forth the pointing to a door
That opens wide. Be not afraid,
I think, to thereupon explore.

And there I search the sea, in stay,
For those few drops that speak of me.
Below a

Our Natural State

Beneath the noise of borrowed truths
and the weight of clocks that chime with urgency,
there lies a quiet field—vast, untamed,
where the soul remembers its original name.
No walls, no maps, no mirrors to hold us;
only the steady rhythm of breath,
the pulse of being untouched by thought.

Here, the sky is not a question
but a boundless answer,
its blue stretching

Premium MemberChime Of Meditation

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 unsaid psalmic devotions
 for a world which aches for calmer

Premium MemberNature's Chime

 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 in the gloam

 On the shore the waves repeat
 As
