gracious bells


Ray Heinrich


your prince of peace framed
with bones and nails
keeps you safe
from the faces in the window
but i am not so good at these things
i can’t explain
the pictures of belief
lining your walls
and i will never know your father
or his bones
but i am waiting
watching you secure upon your rock
me swimming the sea listening
to your gracious bells
