I Toll the Bell In the vortex of a thought Lives a place that I have wrought. An Island shaped a Christmas tree A fantasy of dreams I see. A place of existential core A place where Eden marks the door A garden full of warm surmise A place I hide my hidden sighs. It is a gift of my declare And I in true its only heir The only other in this place Is my love of perfect grace? It is the Shangri-la I go The Eldora do that I know The manifest that stays my strife The Golden Fleece that saves my life It is the tolling of my bell Without it I would be in hell. |
