Eager freshmen,
farm fresh,
looks in wonder
ivy-covered brick,
rainbow of students
all around.
Oh, but it was
that noble chiming
every hour.
From up within
that chemists' tower.
Envisioning bells
large and heavy
swinging merrily
with their song.
Until one day,
the chiming interrupted
a recording corrupted.
Bell impostors,
only loudspeakers.
It's never too late to participate! Join us @ Theme Thursday!

ReplyDeletevery nice...bells are much better than loud speaks...any day!
ReplyDeleteshame isn't it. So many of them are just recordings. I'm heading into Sydney today for Chinese NY so definitely going to Check out St Mary's Cathedral to see if their bells, the only ones that peel in the city. . are in fact 'real'.
