Summer is around the corner so I decided to make myself a few windchimes. The problem is I fell in love with them, so rather than hang them up outside I just put them above my bed. At night I give them a little push and fall asleep to their gentle sounds...awe, its so pretty. I found this poem the other day and had to smile at its parallel...enjoy!
A Matter of Time:
He was given an offering of enchanting music
A wind chime to rest his soul
With every waking day he would open his eyes to his swaying gift
He would study it with great recognition
Appreciating its every move and gentle sound
When he was lonely he would listen to its chime
It would ease his heart and remind him of something greater
It would tell stories of peaceful days
This little tiny windchime kept his longing company
He found trust in this melody
Its each jewel grazing against one another to sing a song of comfort
A magnificent vision that mirrored his being
Its peaceful presence opened to bear all colors
For days, months, years on end this chime became his friend
Then one day the wind picked up
He went outside to find his chime rattling about
Its magical sounds turned into relentless pounding
There was no music left to hear on that cold windy day
So he took his windchime down...
He put it away for good.
