On gates and chimes, a prayer

Gate
swinging in the wind

Discordant
sound

Hinges
needing oiling

Wind
chimes

Music

A
welcome sound

Isn’t
life like that?

Discordant,
sometimes

Irritating,
sometimes

Merry,
sometimes

Joyful,
sometimes

But
always good

Always

I thank
you, God

For the
wind

That brings
movement

And
change

Help me
accept it all

The good
and the not-so-good

And help
me see the blessings

In both
