i mean it
in me it fits
to be nices
i don't thank twice
you are bright
and light up the night
with your smile
i can tell
you rings a bell
that your gods child

just won't say
HELLO

The ball went up, and down it came
In the neighbor’s yard, now what a shame
He can be a bit of a grouch you see
He’s not overly fond of kids like me
Shall I climb over the fence, or ring the bell
Maybe his wife’s home, that would be swell
Oh look, someone’s tossed it right back
Thank you! For cutting this kid some slack…

BB's really rattle in the shell
Of a container,loose like bell
Clapper, hanging free to ding
Ideas rattle in poet's brain to ring
The audience, and awake from sleep
Oh! Into a new dimension of deep
Thoughts, understanding of heights above
The ordinary, into a new realm of love (truth)
(Thank you Lord for your blesssings on me.)

I know it well
The night
I learned to spell
And got it right
Then I could tell
How close to Hell
I’d held the light
A stand upon a precipice
Thank lady Luck
I didn’t miss
The night
I learned to spell
The candle sputtered
As I read and uttered
Words and tolled
The bell
And in the spinning winds of time
I learned to spell
Quite well
And sell
Dumb

pictures of you
wishes on a forklift
another ordinary day
cannot afford to daydream
pictures of you
extended bathroom break
my cell phone comes in HANDY
cannot afford open eyed wet dreams
pictures of you
reality kicking in after the aftermath
my forklift key drops on the floor like a neglected bell
cannot afford You anyway
Thank God For Disagreeing With Me and For AllWays Being Right

I understand, if not for you, I would not know the sad news,
I know you are a brilliant person, working at a young age,
In sales in Flea Markets, and such,
I just want to let you know,
Your brother was proud of you,
And of that you should never doubt...
Please keep in touch with me,
Quasarttt228@aol.com...
You now carry the Trotiner mantel,
A legacy I know you are worthy of...
and Thank You, Tom Bell

Norman Vincent Peale
Who lived his life with religous zeal.
Witneesed his cousins leather strap demeaner.
Glad for his home, where the grass seemed greener.
He'd turn and crank the bell of his youth.
As he learned to thank God he was raised with couthe.
I read in a short story he wrote, he rang this doorbell from his grandma's old house and it would bring him back to his childhood days back in a quaint little town.

Politely, thank you for engaging me
But transform myself?
No, thank you
Leap for me, like a bullfrog under a blood moon in the heart of Guatemala
Sing for me, like a gilded bird in a Tiffany bell jar
Make three hurdles, five sprints, and nine squats into a banana sundae
Thrill me, bleed words for me
Knock on my attic window where I study alone, find and echo me
No More, No Less
I will continue to respire with ragged lungs
A breath is presence
It knows nought but its own truth
It lingers to meet the crowd
It passes

12.40am, August 27th 1990
A sadness for many
And the music community
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Chicago bound
Helicopter Bell 260B
Hillside it found
It crashed in the fog
Denying my ears
To hear SRV
For many years
In a twist of fate
It was his brother's seat
Jimmy climbed down
The last they would meet
Tributes poured in
For this guitarist gem
Stevie Vai, Buddy Guy
Hall of Fame
Double Trouble, Southern Class
Dallas Texas, brother loss
Thank you SRV
For the music you brought to me

"Agnes, you played like an angel,
pitch perfect as a ringing bell."
"I'll bequeath mine to you dear,
no need to thank or shed a tear.
"I feel blessed to share this with you.
dawning enlightenment so true."
"Practice and it will start to flow,
making you a virtuoso."
"Think 'bow' extension of your arm,
make it your veritable charm."
"With the right tutor you shall bloom."
"Now, listen while I play this tune."
"Octaves lowering and ascending,
let them float through senses blending."
"Elevates to musical place,
expresses clearly on your face".

I think we should ask the Soup people about this convention-where to have- how
much each would need to contribute. This could be a big promotional coup for
the Soup people-even if they charge us , say $20 per head to attend- and more
for site...etc...And perhaps I can get my old band together for entertainment- I'd
even do some of my stand-up comedy...band and comedy gratis. and maybe
vote for a couple of categories of poetry- romantic, humourous-sad-life-loss-
and "Grand Master Poet" Please advise me of your thoughts! Thank you, and
God bless you all!! tom bell

T G I F - Thank God It's Friday!
This is a term kids like to say.
At three, bell ringing would convey
school's done...reward...TWO DAYS OF PLAY!
T G I F - Thank God It's Friday!
This is a phrase employees bray.
End of the day, they think hooray!
Work's done...reward...WEEKEND, PAYDAY!
T G I F - Thank God It's Friday!
ALL days are Fridays in a way.
Retirees now, with hope they pray;
day's done...reward...ANOTHER DAY!

Came from Muskogee, Oklahoma;
As a teenager came to care for her elderly Auntie in Omaha;
Whereas she met her handsome older new Navy guy,
Two years later became her husband;
Birth 3 sons-one died nine months later
One born blind, nine months later came, I
A strong black woman died at 39 years
I miss you Mom didn't say I love you enough you see;
So endearing I thank God for thee;

three seguidillas
written for the National Day of Prayer
May 2, 2013
Very soon after terror
threatens with its spell,
faith signals us to gather
belief rings a bell.
Sounding out our care
as the dreaded darkness falls.
Stop and offer prayer.
During times of joy and peace
and when hopes prevail,
morning, noon or late at night
praise should never fail.
Thank the God who cares
when His blessings intervene.
Stop and offer prayers.
If you're worried or afraid
if you're caught in doubt
realize God sees your plight,
open up and shout.
Victory declare
let folks know you know He's real.
Stop and offer prayer.

Wade the Shallows
Wade the shallows, swim not the deep,
loss of time makes the old man weep.
Imagine castles, thundered in glory prime
fleeing shadows racing about in time!
Comfort of the known sees the dream,
whistles the kettle in heated steam.
A vow, a promising oath made in sin
darkened shadows await in the heart of men!
Cleave to the willows along the bank,
sand on the beach, rocks to thank
Look back at a wild path solemnly made
rejoice in the hand so well played!
Walk a path that gives solace and high spirit.
Ring that bell, do not worry if failing to hear it!

Sweet seizures,
I get them these days,
Come awake,
In a foggy haze...
Just drop to the floor,
Sometimes unaware
Save for bruises
and an overturned chair
Can't drive no more,
Too dangerous,
For sure
Just go on my way
With pain every day
Only Soup and music
Distract my pain
And suddenly,
I'm me again
So thank you,
Dear Soupers,
Such treasured friends,
I hope I amuse you,
Cause it's love that mends
And I get plenty,
Right here,
On this marvelous site,
Although, at times,
It keeps me up all night..
Thank you Poetry Soup Management
You serve the world well
This you can say
Was a quote from Tom Bell.
