The Dead Were Not Actually

 

 

many moons ago

 

let the real truth be told

 

the undertaker would attach a bell on the toe of the dead

 

right before they were actually embalmed

 

if the bell would ring

 

the dead were actually alive

 

many times before those alive were buried dead

 

until that glorious bell on the toe

 

There was a tale of a tramp that visited my grandma

 

it was thought that he was dead

 

until the bell rung on his toe to let them know

 

although those many years have passed

 

still having a great reason to grasp

 

my grandma would share he story

 

although today there is no longer a bell

 

I have such a great story to tell
