Evening Bells Ring

Evening bells, chime

melancholy sweet

a blessed aged

is it a prayer? is it a prayer?

wrapping as with a mantle

a father’s admiring care.

*

Changing times toned

a continued ago joy

with melody anamnesis [thanks]

is it a prayer? is it a prayer?

people accept admired me

some still do, some are gone [where?]

*

Changeless yet changing

I accept not afflicted

I charge to be loved, authority hands

is it a prayer?

touch me with kindness

just let me share.

*

I just wish to share.
