wind chimes

Wind Chimes (2007, 2009)

Small sounds

twinkle in the ear -

soft velvet touch.

Invisible fingers

quietly mingle

on a weathered cheek,

with sullen humid arvo sweat.

Bleating echoes in the wind;

desiccated foliage rustles,

let’s as creaking floorboards

 whisper willowed memories -

childhood's laughter rings;

clarion of tomorrow fades.
