Haiku 001

a distant bell tolls
in ground shaking momenta
soft clouds drift on by.

The bell of disaster rings from distant, heard by no one and goes on. When danger shakes life, recovers gradually there after. I feel from this wonderful poem. Am I right? Loved always, bl

Can't believe nobody else has seen this one except me yet. So did you google Heloise and Abelard? You have to read their story, Harry! It's incredible what they went through.
