Life Is A Bell, Tied To A String

Life is a series of bells all tied to thick strings
When one is shaken and rattles the encompassing ones ring
Through small little circles this effect loudly goes
Like ripples in a pond from a splashing large stone
The larger the circle the more bells are heard
From one to another then affecting a third
This process continues exponetially around
Impacting so many from jingle to pound
On and on the bells ring until the world starts to shake
Bells ringing out louder then any earthquake
Life was begun with the ringing of two
It will continue to ring until all rings are through
Ropes seem to sever with age or with ware
With no reason at all or just lack of care
One rope one bell can change the whole tune
Some ropes that fall cause others to, too soon
The bells that fall ringing, crashing, quivering to the ground
Changing the melody and pitch of all the bells sound
Then other ropes come and replace fallen kin
Then those bells attached begin ringing again
This cycle continues and bells are still swaying
The bells never answer to what song is playing
