Bells, Whistles, and Other Doo-Dads
Ring-ring-ring
Bong - Bong - Bong
Shreeee-Shreee-Shreee
Light and airy,
Solemn and rich,
Piercing and short.
All sounds heard everyday,
By ordinary people,
Always in the way.
They ignore the lilting rings,
the chiming bings,
the sweeping pings.
If I could hear,
I'd pray for daylight,
To draw near.
