Wind Chimes (original poem)
Frederick Kesner
© 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;
dessicated foliage rustles,
as creaking floorboards

whisper willowed memories -
childhood's laughter rings;
clarion of tomorrow fades.

Not being trained or skilled in making videos or performing poetry, this initial audio attempt at posting at youtube awaits a friend's more learned interpretation and broadcasting of my poetry. It is hoped that their help and generosity would do greater justice to the poems and allow readers/viewers a fuller and more palatable experience.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for watching.

  • Thanks, I will watch them as soon as I get on a decent computer. Having problems with the one at home.

  • Windchimes hasn't been recorded, sadly, but it is being performed in Queensland around September so I might get a recording then.

    On my channel are some pieces inspired by Haiga (Japanese painting) : The Likeness Of Wind, A Storm of Petals, Shy Rainbow.

    Thank you for the kind words.

  • Indeed it is, Phillip. Nothing quite like haiku to touch the thought and soul in brief lines and fleeting glimpses of universalities.

    Btw, it would be interesting to listen to your piano piece on Wind Chimes. Post it up on your account if you haven't already. Cheers.

    Thank you so much for the comment. You are much appreciated.

  • This is almost reminiscent of haiku - yes??

    Coincidentally, a piano piece I wrote many years ago titled Wind Chimes has just found it's way into the AMEB Exam (L.Mus.A standard) syllabus and has been republished.
