The Chiming of the Rhymes T'was said the bell was in the rhyme Of love that went the course of time And echoed from the towers height To sing the world of love's delight And tower was the fantasy Of what would be or not to be A vision of a simple love That rang from chamber walls above The day he went to final rest He woke in truth to his unrest For from the place of life's depart He heard the chiming of her heart Elizabeth Santos |

Elizabeth~ Beautiful, as always. I like the bells image. Merry Christmas. Elizabeth Nail to the mast her holy flag, Set every threadbare sail- And give her to the god of storms, The lightning and the gale! -Oliver Wendell Holmes |

Elizabeth, my friend - I like the cadence of this one. The chimes on the tower in my town ring out on the hour ... I shall think of you each time I hear their beautiful sounds. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Elizabeth, This is exactly what I meant And exactly what I sent. There were no words between the lines, The bells were clear in your define. Why would I take offence There was no dense pretence. Love ya Sy |

Wonderfull sound, I could hear the bells chime. It's fantasy. But if it contains a piece of me doesn't that make it as real as I am? |
