I F only I could imagine the tinkling of the sweet church bells in that dear little country we called our home. With lovely sun drenched hills amid, yellow fields of daffodils. As bells chime a glorious tune for Christmas day. Soon to be by the magic light of the silver Moon, St Nicholas will be here. Gold Bells on his sleigh and here with Eight Reindeer spreading gifts of joy to children in many lands across the world. As all come to church on that great day by God’s Almighty Grace we receive His blessing. As He makes the bell toll for us as He rings it with His Love !

Thanks Empress. There was one or two words that just wouldn't behave, I liked the poem and didn't want to change it, so I swapped a few sentences around without deleting anything and finally it fell into place. Words are bit like putty, if you work on them enough they become pliable.. lol

Can just imagine you throwing that Chef's kiss ! Thank you Edward, it proves an old saying. If at first you don't succeed.... lol ( it was N/A'd in a contest that called for a poem about Bells. ) Persistence pays.

Thank you my dear friend. I am glad you like it. The shapes aren't hard. Its just a bit of hit and miss getting the words to behave. Takes a few minutes of "fiddling" to get it to fit and look right. A hint if you are going to try one, create it on the submission page of Soup. Don't create it elsewhere and try to cut and paste it to post it. It wont work. Lotsa luv.. Wen
