    A beautiful poem.
    I can hear the sound of the windchimes, and the emotional journey is precisely crafted and paced.
    Perhaps the final couplet needs a perfect rhyme to make it work even better?
    Overall, an impressive use of language.

    'Spirit of the Bells" Is that a decent title for this?

    My windchimes make melodies from under the eaves;
    every bell plays its tune for a lost child.
    The forces of nature are strange, free and wild;
    they are drawn to my essence as one who still grieves.
    I wear my mourning garb day after day, until night
    supplies my shroud as I drift into dream-land,
    where my daughter and I make castles in sea-sand
    and we watch aqua waves as they crest into white.
    Waking is torment after such lovely dreams.
    It seems like just yesterday I held her small form
    From where ocean meets horizon comes a fell storm;
    tears like colossal rains fall down my face in streams.

    Please bring her home to me, oh spirit of windchimes;
    take me from this stormy place to where the sun shines.
