this stormy night

the wind chimes
fight back

steadfastly

they will not let up

yelling and clanking
their way against the storm

they will
defeat the rain
and outlast
the cold
the wet
the air

their strings bind them
and may one day
set them on separate ways

but they will live on
more from the shadows
and from behind the shrubs
in which they'll fall

If
and only if
I don't get to them
first
