Baby ghosts go to bed with their

There is one thing that matters -- to set a chime of words tinkling in the minds of a few fastidious people.

Adored
I have loved a time.
I really adored my rhyme as one to climb.
My reality is such that time does not stand still, and chime.
This is mine.

Out of Time
My old clock used to tell the time
and subdivide diurnity;
but now its lost both hands and chime
and only tells eternity.
