Portending Tones
Sounding in alarm
Wind chimes forewarn the approach
Of a sudden storm
Clashing together in a cacophony of urgent notes, the usually tranquil tones of our hand-tuned chimes were reduced to harsh, chaotic melodies in the intense unwonted winds. Rushing onto the deck curiously, I discovered that the balmy day had been smothered in churning steel clouds and sharp gusting breezes. Concerned, I began carrying our recently acquired unplanted flowers into the safety of the small greenhouse, and no sooner had I secured the last tray then an impossible icy downpour of hail violently assaulted the yard. The utterly bizarre weather incident passed as quickly and strangely as it had come, the fragile flowers having been spared by the wind chimes alert.
