Dong...dong...
The end came
long before its time.
But lo,
a new beginning
makes the bells chime
once more!
Wouldn’t you think
that after all these years
the sound of church bells
should have been made different
depending on whether
they celebrate life
or remind us of our fears?

"deprofundis" says: You SOUND like Fernando Pessoa. How about that?
Funnily enough, and even though I admire him and love his poetry, I don't think I've ever read anything by Fernando Pessoa in English. I'm getting curious
now...
I forgot to thank you for the compliment. And boy, what a compliment!
The church bells tell us that love is stronger than death. Chimes always praise life or maybe not... And isn't death the starting of a new life? I don't know.I'm lost. And i don't hear bells...
