NOTE: Uses the new poetry form called THE BELL, which is an elongated version of a Cinquain. It has 9 lines and rigid syllable count of 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 8, 2, 1, respectively. Usually presented with centre alignment [center ..../center]. The Ninette form (nine lines with syllables increasing and then decreasing) is very similar to the BELL form.
Bell
peeled, wrung
out, a clean skin,
shiny, clear to ring true,
has piercing dings that penetrate
right through the chaotic din and clatter,
insistent with its message sung:
Chiming
