Jingle-clang-jangle!
Old bottles, forks, and spoons on a string
Smiles when the kitchen band assembles
Seen through the mind's telescope
Framed by the window forever
Though the clock whisked the children away
And it's just wind chimes playing for the breeze
Sounds like a fun jam session with the kitchen band. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a delight. I love wind chimes and ours keep very active.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delight this is. I've never heard children play pots and pans in the kitchen but this opens my imagination. And the wind chimes!
ReplyDeleteHow charming...I love your second tercet that references the children growing up but that view outside the window remains.
ReplyDeletehey - i love a good kitchen music - remember how we played as kids - i think i should grab a fork and a knife and find me some rhythm now...smiles
ReplyDeleteI love this. What a great reminder to treasure their sounds as music, not noise, while they're still around.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! Stellar last line :D
ReplyDeleteAh.. I do love the kitchen song... and that closure makes me think of a summer dinner...
ReplyDeletethe clock be damned...sigh...
ReplyDeleteI do love wind chimes! Enjoyed this very much.

ReplyDelete"Though the clock...." on the second hand, it seems! Quite nicely done!
