Chimes Of Time Poem by David Whalen

<center>
Soft as velvet tolls the chimes
Benign reminder of transient time
That marks the measure of mortal man

Regal sound from bell tower high
On Angel’s wings sounds
through the sky

Reminder from God above
To man the eternal
Power of love

Yet mortal man pays little heed
To things that fail To fill
An instant need

So goes unheard
The velvet chimes
Eternal reminders

…Of transient time…
