At DVerse, we are exploring the question as poetry. I was inspired by these questions from Pablo Neruda: “Where can you find a bell that will ring in your dreams?” and, less directly, “Who sings in the deepest water in the abandoned lagoon?”
Where can you find a bell that will ring
In your dreams? Is there a voice to hear
Underneath the deepest water? Sing,
And let the questions bring no more fear.
What had been abandoned, found once more,
Due to courage, found in heart and will:
The notes will form a glorious chord
Ringing, dreams enlivened, dark voids filled.
I like the reassurances in your poem.

I agree with Jade about the resonances, reinforced by the rhymes.

I think you are the first to use that quote (one I have noted for a future poem) and the bell certainly rings and sings through these lines. Glad the Neruda quote(s) gave you voice – thank you for joining in

I think of the bell as a reminder to stay on track, to remind us to sing, to hope. Beautiful.
