Seven Echoes Resound In The Old Bell Tower
Seven echoes resound in the old bell tower
each a clap for righteous requests.
Sanctity evades within this religious hour
and hovers over its invited guests.
Old bell strokes out its first day's ten
time reminds the priests to pray.
Caution seriously, we the far lesser men
on faith of this holy Sabbath day.
When this day and ceremonies are at end
invisible cello stroking its strings.
Even the deaf smile handsomely and pretend
some slip away while the choir sings.
Seven echoes resound in the old bell tower
each a plea for a peaceful day.
Blessings cast down bringing by the hour
more faith to those that pray!
