Spirit of the Bells Ring across the field Echo off the walls Worm their way Into my heart Like the mist Of waterfalls They sound a mellow chime The taste A sip of wine They stir the shadows Of the deep In the embers that they reap The spirit of the bells Come out my wishing well They echo in my mind To light the path of find And I am caught within the sweep Forever in my sleep |

Sy...*sigh*...I needed this today. Simply beautiful...thank you. it is better to be a part of beauty for one instant and then cease to exist than to exist forever and never be a part of beauty -- Don Marquis [This message has been edited by vlraynes (07-19-2003 08:09 AM).] |

They sound a mellow chime The taste A sip of wine They stir the shadows Of the deep In the embers that they reap The spirit of the bells Come out my wishing well They echo in my mind To light the path of find ============================= ahhh Stinky..your timing is uncanny and impecable...just the other day I was waiting for my daughter on a parking lot and a nearby church played several songs just as the sunset behind its steeple...between the beauty of the colors and the haunting beauty of the bells, this moth was humbled to tears. Your perfect poem puts into words what I lacked in my awe. "I'm good at two things and this is the other one." |

Isabel is going the Huston texas to see our new greatgrand daughter. The next trip we will be in your neck of the woods. WWRS Bill, Thanks a million for the read and like. |
