Ring and Bell

The ring I have 
I do not wear in my finger little 
To dispel neither the spell of a wicked ghost or witch 
Nor to attract the soul of a damsel 
The bell is not for chimes either 
To ring out 
To ring in 
The old, the new or the clichés 
In my heart that I ring for another reason 
The purposes are gyrating and stiring 
Inside and at the bottom 
To awaken 
To arouse 
The giant in deep sleep 
And for you all the good will in hibernation
