Array ( [sid] => 63748 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Life's Windchime [time] => 2004-09-14 19:09:54 [hometext] => Perhaps a little deep but then I tend to think that way at times. [bodytext] => Life's Windchime

The musical sound of a small windchime
may soothe a sad and weary heart.
It's melodious tune is somehow lost in time,
as the slightest breeze, causes it to start.

Very much like one's heart, at the beginning of each day,
with only the smallest tingle, you may now become aware
that there is music in your life, as you continue on your way.
These are common emotions, that all of us do share.

There is love, sometimes even hate...sadness and overwhelming joy,
Emotions each forthcoming, the heart's beat...the only sound.
But, our hearts are not a windchime...it is not a man-made toy,
to hear the sound of it's beating, it needs breath to be found.

Our breath is like the wind with-in, causing the melody that we hear.
Each time we open an emotion...and let our feelings soar,
to places in our lives we may never go, but hold especially dear,
with the tingle of our hearts musical strings, heard at our deepest core.

Life's Windchime

The musical sound of a small windchime
may soothe a sad and weary heart.
It's melodious tune is somehow lost in time,
as the slightest breeze, causes it to start.

Very much like one's heart, at the beginning of each day,
with only the smallest tingle, you may now become aware
that there is music in your life, as you continue on your way.
These are common emotions, that all of us do share.

There is love, sometimes even hate...sadness and overwhelming joy,
Emotions each forthcoming, the heart's beat...the only sound.
But, our hearts are not a windchime...it is not a man-made toy,
to hear the sound of it's beating, it needs breath to be found.

Our breath is like the wind with-in, causing the melody that we hear.
Each time we open an emotion...and let our feelings soar,
to places in our lives we may never go, but hold especially dear,
with the tingle of our hearts musical strings, heard at our deepest core.

Such a gentle sweet soul with such a sweet story told. How much we are a gentle breeze, how much we are hanging tones, like a ripple in the waters, the chimes we sing, seem to linger and gather such tender ears.

Thank you for sharing.

Long live deep thinking if it produces work of this quality
