today's despair-
my dreams hang in windchimes
without a breeze

Windchimes - my only jukebox, these days - remain (sadly) unplugged these days. I had to re-hang them yesterday, but...still no breezetunes.

A wonderful and vivid metaphor. The potentiality for the dreams is there, but it's just not happening.
Happy Sunday, Gillena. :)
