| THE SHELL |
The shell of bell
At peace after rung
The free falling rain
As if undone from someone
From wax to wane
Whatever its name
I enjoy their pause
Till vibrating again
Vibrating from within
The shell begins again
Sending ripples of air
To ears which share
Share of the joy
Or which annoy
Of sleepy heads
Not out of bed
My garden seems happier
As the resonance swells
Spread like eagles on wing
Harmony from shell of bell
