i hear the bell ring
calling me for dinner
i hear the bell ring
telling me to pray

i hear the bell ring
and i get up for school
i hear the bell ring
and i pack up and leave

i hear the bells are ringing
in harmony with the tears of broken dreams

this words came to thought while i was singing a tune. some sort of inspiration from the stresses of exams got me to begin a poem..for a song

i cant seem to continue away from "i hear the bells ring"

I think the idea of a life controlled by the regimented ringing of a bell has definite possibilities.  Not sure about the last two lines as they stand though.

The ending could take this direction: a comment on the bell, the sound of bell, the reaction to bell -- something active, not passive.

The first two stanzas are a good set up.

Best, imbeaux
