We would wait. Waiting was a game.
We would sit. Developing, a name.
That we could announce, to the world.
That would forever twirl.
Sitting in the dark, was a scare.
Blackness all around you in a flare
So, how would we survive?
How could we live, to die?
Sounding, a bell we would wait.
Sounding, a bell we would create.
Sounding, a bell we would destroy
Sounding, a bell we would deploy.
Sounding, a bell we would hear.
The fear, that would wait.
It was a game.

Thanks, I wrote that in a libary. (The best place to work) and I just typed and the lines came out just like it sounds.

That poem so much reminded me of Loreena McKennitt's "Book Of Secrets". It is so filled with mystique, magical worlds and sounds that it makes my heart bounce like a baby's cradle, or like watching a fire on a candle. Or it's more like a light in a shadow... Wise words! Love, Ana
