Tintinnabulation

Tintinnabulation  

It's always there in the background  
At first I thought it was weird?  
It constantly whispers in the corner  
And it's never just disappeared...  
 
It's just a tiny little jingle  
It jingles all day and night  
Someone once told me it's the dead getting in touch...  
Reminding us they still shine bright...  
 
If I make a slight turn of my head  
From either my left or my right  
The tingling becomes slightly louder  
As it occupies the night...  
 
One time I got down on my knees  
And proceeded to search for its source  
I obviously couldn't see a single thing  
But I didnt expect to of course!  
 
Is this a supernatural experience  
Or is it just all in my head?  
Cant be, cos others have heard it too?  
So I'll go along with the recently dead...  
 
When my Mum died it rang very clearly  
But I could silence it with a "Shoosh"  
Yet soon after a few moments had passed  
It'd return again without an excuse...  
 
Now it just comes and goes as it pleases  
This niggling, tingling ringing...  
Perhaps its God trying to get in touch?  
Or maybe it's his Angel's singing....?
