The chimes in the night.
The chimes. Break up the night.
I'm standing in the darkness, and a chimes from the town Church Tower break up the silence of the night. I stand on the hill overlooking the grave sites and see the shadows of all the people from the past. They all came back at last. They come like a fog that floats in on a cold summer's night. Then they disappear as a fog moves on by, but they're still here by my side. Till the end of time.
About this poem
I have a church next door and I can hear the chimes at night.
