' Bell of Life '
by Thaddeus Hutyra
There was once a bell
a monumental, diamond one
A bell of everlasting life
which the locals called
the Bell of Life
And as the legend says
this diamond bell is still around
ringing, jingling and sounding
worldwide this time
Present at all seasons
and especially at Autumn season
Nothing strange the folks
call this season usually
as a Golden Autumn
one spectacularly colourful
a music not only to the ears
but also to the eyes
forever to be remembered
Once upon a time
there was a beautiful girl
by the name of Anna Deli Rose
fourteen months old only
who died in a remote village
in one far away state behind the Iron Curtain
when bullets from communist agents
pierced both her and her mother
and left them lifeless
While her father was taken away
without even a chance to mourn his loss
her little brothers cried at her grave
before being taken to orphanage
with wounded hearts and souls
The diamond bell of life
rang so strongly
so vigorously
with a thunder alike melody
ringing, ringing
with thunders following thunders
casting lightnings on and on
more and more desperately
as if jumping out
of Beethoven's Appassionata
that it broke up finally
to thousands and one
smaller diamond bells
shining like the stars
on the firmament of the nightly sky
and ringing in a crazy way
all the music there ever was
as if the world
became Cookoo's Nest
Oh, ring, ring, ring diamond bells !
shine, shine the diamond stars !
Narrate your stories forcefully
once and for all, forever !!
Soon afterwards
those little diamond stars
bursted like spectacular fireworks
over the Sydney Bridge
and in New York's skyline
while Times Square Ball
located high above One Times Square
was lowered with a countdown
from sixty seconds until one second
and reached the bottom of its tower
announcing to the world the New Year
Celebrations began
among all people of goodwill
unaware of evil
happening somewhere else
The diamond stars
bursting like shining fireworks
were seen
at every corner of the world
from above the Eiffel Tower
to the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin
to even small villages
at every single part of the globe
But this was not the end of the story
What happened afterwards
was the spread of diamond pieces
over the Earth
which small boys and men alike
gathered up like mushrooms after the rain
and brought to their girlfriends
and wives
and so the tiny diamonds
ended up on the fingers of girls and women
shining resemblingly alike
in their miniature
like the original
immortal diamond Bell of Life
What nobody knew was
that the diamond Bell of Life
had ability to resurrect itself
as Jesus Christ did it himself
and so one day the Bell of Life
appeared yet again
shining with thousands and one
crystals of diamonds
in all their colours and splendors
heavens only knew
How mesmerizingly ethereal
did the Bell of Life looked !
All those numerous little diamonds
within it and on it's surface
had their own lives
heartbeats and souls
alike the living human cells
and shined like a thousand of stars
being set within the bell
an ethereal phenomenon
the world has never ever seen before
Such was a marvel of marvels
this diamond Bell of Life
belonging to God and angels
to humans and all living creatures
The sparkles of diamond rays
shined in all directions like disco lasers
showing the lifelines from within the bell
and engulfing every corner of the world
But then something tragic happened yet again
There in a remote small Iranian village
parents, Christian converts
were taken away from their house
and shortly afterwards
executed by hanging from a crane
What the vicious regime didn't know
or rather didn't care about
there was a little beautiful girl
left alone in the house
Her name was Diana Mahtab Rahdi
and she was only fourteen months old
Bell of Life, the diamond bell
began to ring and ring, and ring
its music reaching chorus of angels
and the very angelic symphony
All the diamonds within the Bell of Life
sparkled one after the other one
thousands and thousands of times
till they reached number million
a million of diamond sparkles
which were spreading
across the world
like the cosmic light waves
beaming constantly
at the Earth's atmosphere
and every single living earthling
and even reaching the core of Earth
What was equally spectacular
was that whoever saw the bell
could see through it like through a wand
or through a crystal clear water
and could see at the same time
all the diamonds within the bell
The Bell which was filled with elixirs
Elixirs of life, not only diamonds
The immortal, diamond Bell of Life
began to ring even louder
with tones brighter than pianoforte's play
stronger even than all the philharmonic plays
taken together
sounding like if chorus of angels
descended from heaven to Earth
The bell rang and rang
with thunders following thunders
lightnings following lightnings
tornadoes upon tornadoes
embedded then in hurricanes
as if the wrath of God became the reality
As so many times before
throughout history of humanity
as far back as to the legendary times
the story repeated itself yet again
The Bell of Life bursted itself
into a spectacular firework
of starry diamonds
which were spreading over the world
in tribute to Diana Mahtab Rahdi this time
the little fourteenth month old girl
left to starve, unattended
The good news is the Bell of Life
has resurrected itself once again
and is still well and alive
ringing for us at special events
such as bringing ethereal toasts
to liberty and enlightenment
and all the civilisational progresses
of the humankind
Oh ring for us, our dear Bell of Life
ring, tinkle and jingle as you like
and please, never say goodbye
Ring us and play us your music
the music of sparkling diamonds
of elixirs of life, dear to us freedoms
music of liberty, enlightenment
music of hope, dreams and desires
ring and tinkle for us, express yourself
laugh with us when the life is a carousel
and mourn with us
when we loose love ones dear to our hearts
Be with us forever, you, the life-giving
mesmerizing, immortal Bell of Life
our heartbeat, our soul, our true love
You, the diamond Bell of Life, our bell !!
