A Knelling Bell

The Bells of my memory knell
  With rhymes to sing and stories to tell
       Although from afar I hear them come  
   My heart shall sense,
                              My thoughts shall dwell      
   For it is in forever's time that I will remember
                                A wonder, a friend,
                                                 Tom Bell
