Tibetan Bells

in the grace of a far gone land
there is a bell that calls my name
to hearken to its tolling command

somewhere, on a hill of grand
there is a soft, soft tingling sound
there, in that far away land

tonal beckoning strikes my soul
seeps like silk into my heart
wishing me peace to be whole


soft the bells are tingling to my life line clinging in my heart they’re ringing

and peace comes in rondo time
waves surf in, in belled delight
that peace would harbor on my mind
both in day and in the night

and strange to think of
cerulean waves on sea green hills
high on mountain’s topping thrills
from where all belling spills

Tibetan bells, they sing to me
in tonal silvered bell of lee
never will cease the ring of me
in Tibetan bells of melody

If I whisper, will you listen?...
I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

Kari love, excellant absolutely excellant. You are always without a doubt the most absorbing and beautiful writer of poems. Constantly you ring the bell that calls my soul back from the abyss of darkness that threatens to suck it down, to cover it.
Thank you for the bell ringing love
Take care

Karilea? How did you know??? LOL..."I am going to Tibet..." is my stock answer to questions regarding any future worries...such as, "what are going to with those kids when they are teen-agers?" And yanno something, you made me realize it's not a bad plan!!! HUGS for this one. I needed the reminder today!

Marsha arises from the flames to spark yet again another note of cheer, and flies on...

Serenity, you ask how did I know?  This place is a mirror, isn't it?  How could I NOT know?...[actually, just lucky I guess...] Thank you!...
