The Third Chime

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.

Summertime
Wind chime
Patiently waiting
For a nudge
Swaying in the breeze
Musical enchantment
Delightfully
Announcing
Sublime
Playtime

To Chime Above

Contradiction…
a mortal trap

Looking forward,
while looking back

Direction frozen,
a timeless clock

To chime above
—life’s paradox

Heard Trump Chime In

Heard Trump Chime In

Trump is probably past his prime
When climbing did fall off a dime
What once used to be ready made
No longer around can he parade
In again we have heard him chime.

Premium Member tiny 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

Wind Chime

Like a wind chime,
my mouth makes sounds
at slightest opportunity

Its music changes
depending on the
feelings being expressed

It quite often
lands me in trouble
due to misunderstanding

Wish it would keep quite

I hear your voice when the breeze blows 
My wind chimes ring out the song
That stirs my heart, for my heart knows
Of whom and for whom it longs
Our frequencies match perfectly 
In sync is our melody
Two as one in unison
The song of you and me

Premium Member Midnight Mysterious Chime


At midnight sharp a bell tolls,
but there's no tower near. 
The notes float and then melt
within the crypt of sleep.
I listen to the chime in dreams
that linger without seeing.
Everything is normal in morning,
except for what I still hear.

Me a Chime

Waving night
Tales of  my dream flight
Musical  horizon and the moon

Whirling in ecstasy, dancing I’m to its tune
One with  the nature, this time is so opportune

Making best of this shimmering time
This night is of my prime
Me a chime

Chime

Tick tock goes the clock
as i let my thoughts go through me
time goes by in a blink of an eye
as my thoughts keep talking to me 
its six past ten don't listen to them
it only makes it longer 
in every second of every hour 
their only getting louder

The Truth sublime.'  I found has chime.. 
With ouch! In fact they really rhyme.!
Metaphorically so closely twine' just
Let out (that fact) you will surely find '
That many kicks and blows ensue.!
And the verbal barage? Well its??
Well' almost (Untrue!)

Premium Member Wind Chime Soul

The child within us weeps at marble headstones 
pallid wilting flowers dark plume wreaths scatter 
harpsichord of heartbeats waltz on grey day plot  
wind chime soul petals float past afterlife clouds.

The Wind Chime

Please accept this little token.
I am sorry I forgot your birthday.
This little gift’s for you to open
To remind you, again, of that day.

Hang it where a breeze will blow
Try the garden or find a pine.
Relax on a blanket in the warmth below.
Be quiet and listen, for its delicate chime.

Premium Member Evening Bells Chime

Evening bells chime in the steeple
  Merry villagers doff their workday masks
Like schoolchildren, not yet grown-up people
  Untethered from their joyless tasks  


One's a druggist; another a clerk
  All count the minutes 'til five 
Matters not where they work
  The hour of freedom's arrived

Parties Chime

The month has ended and paydays here
for all who waited their monthly cheer
When some will say they're always broke
when spending money's daily hope

That those who spend in just one day
will say that money's meant for play
When debts go by for passing time
and governed earned are parties chime

Christmas around the world
Church Organs play
Rise and Shine
Joy on high
Blessing on impact
Cocoa hot
Warmth within
Fireplace reflection
Happy in full control
A day to embrace one another
A Christmas holiday that comes once a year
Inspiration to always preserver
Reason for the Season
North Star birth
Let there always be peace on Earth.

My Heart To Chime

Poor in stock yet rich in spirit,
  my clock does bow and sway

In rags and tatters all unstitched,
  with joy do I still pray

My flesh is weak, my home now burnt
   just embers to remind

Within this trouble and burning ash,
   on the hour
     —my heart still chimes

Premium Member Wind Chime In a Wind Storm

The giant blue and green dragonfly, 
with its broken wing,
tries madly to escape 
its silver cage.

The poor old thing doesn't believe
escape from its sturdy ring
is an impossible reshape
of its once golden age.

I turn away with a sigh,
realizing with a sharp sting,
that I, too, am caught in a dreamscape
of impotent rage.
