Chime

 

I hear a chime,

A distant, earthen chime.

It sings to me of

          Loving hands,

          In angel voice,

          And peaceful days.

 

I hear a chime,

A whisper, stirring chime.

Of fire and stone and

          Gleeful shapes,

          In quiet breeze

          It laughing plays.

 

I hear a chime,

A lonely, yearning chime.

In dark of night and

          Thunderous storms,

          Of fearful doubt

          It endless prays.
