Notes About The Poem

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.

Ding Dong Bell

Ding Dong, Ding Two bells echo There's someone at the door! Who can it be, what do they want? Will they go away if I hide, feign deaf? How piercing, insistent they be! Ding Dong, Ding
