Wind Chimes In the wind chimes of my mind Sound the memories of remind Playing pictures good and bad Ones I love and ones of sad The winds that make them dance for me I feel at times but cannot see They strike the cords within my heart And plays at random each new start I wish I could control the chimes To only play the pleasant times But winds and chimes are free to fall On all and any of recall So if you wish a pleasant song Stay your mind to do no wrong Keep your conscious at a simmer And you will ring a better glimmer And so the bells do ring for thee It’s you that whip the butters ghee |

I love the wind chimes too ... So if you wish a pleasant song Stay your mind to do no wrong Keep your conscious at a simmer And you will ring a better glimmer Wise advice, dear Seymour. I receive you always only in peaceful tones! Love and hugs. Margherita  |

Reminds me in a way of one of the last conversations I had with my father before he passed away...he spoke of his memories and how he too often remembered only those things he should have but did not do... Perhaps this was why a gentle man was so silent for so many years...only to let the dam burst at the last moments... |

it is a pretty interesting concept comparing your mind to wind chimes. i guess mine has just been one big bell, its just that its loud and i cant listen to myself thinking. so let your mind be a wind chime, as you nicely put it. |

I loved this. It's so truthful. Life brings our way a Dragon which we try with all of our might to diverge paths from...but we cannot truly live until we encounter the Dragon. I felt this poem...if it is not alreayd obvious. Yv-Goddess of Her Domain. Symbol of Truth Passion Pain. Let Her Smile Rain on the Hearts of the Innocent. |

"And so the bells do ring for thee" Oh yes! ...and don't they ring for us all. I sometimes have thought wind chimes are like cats, any set seems to know what any other set has learned about human moods. I have a small tree outside my house that is filled with chimes, yet sometimes they play only a single note and other times they play a symphony. A good read. Thanks for sharing it! |

"I wish I could control the chimes To only play the pleasant times Oh, if that were only so. This was beautiful from beginning to end, and I printed it and am going to frame it - it's lovely! |
