Reading For Whom the Bell Tolls

The trail through the pines -

The snow falling almost in June -


 Anselmo saying I am against the killing of all men -

The flails and sickles in the town square -


Roberto holding Maria's hand -

How he says thy hand is enough -


The fascist planes in the sky -

Three score years and ten becoming two days -


Putting the book down -

My heart filled with sorrow, then with love -
