At dVerse Kim is hosting the Quadrille (44 words) with an invitation to write a poem using some form of the word bell.
dVerse Poets – Quadrille – For whom the bell tolls

“In alchemy Mercurius is allegorised as the stag because the stag can renew itself.” Carl Jung
All The Young Does The high street doe unconsciously paraded, offending older women with supple confidence, and her taut longings, leaving all the young bucks pulsating while older stags inwardly belled at their stirring memories of the young does they grazed with in fields, glades and hedgerows.

Haha, eternal moment ~ and GREAT photo!

I liked the picture that you used Paul. The faces on those men checking out the girl are priceless, and she just goes her merry way smiling along.

Paul, I’m glad you gave that def of belled. I interpreted it as belled as in cat.

You did it, Paul! You included belling stags in your quadrille! It evoked a strange image in my head, which I can’t shake off, of the high street doe being pursued by bucks and stags.
