bells! bells! bells! by summerfield

bells! bells! bells!

decorations and ornaments on saturdays

Hear the sledges with the bells -
Silver bells!
What a world of merriment their melody foretells!
How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
In the icy air of night!
While the stars that oversprinkle
All the heavens, seem to twinkle
With a crystalline delight;
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
Bells, bells, bells -
From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.
- "the bells" by edgar allan poe
That is very pretty. But Poe? It doesn't sound like I expect Poe but I guess even he had to have a little cheer in his life.
