Dear Bona Kingsley Manga Bell family,
Dear family Bell,
Dear family of our beloved colleague, friend, brother Bona Kingsley Manga Bell,
Light, the one we sense
Light, the one that holds us
These sensing particles of gushing energy crossing our bodies,
making it move.
Light, the one we sense
Light, the one that holds us
Light, one that needs only seconds to reach us
Light, traveling space millennia before it touches us
Light, this hot balancing air
Light, this power carrying the atmosphere
Light, as high as warmth weighing gravity
Light, the one we sense
Light, the one that holds us
This light we sense, from its way back to our lens, carrying the history of a body,
that it touched, before it touched us.
Light is energy
Energy is Life
Light is Bona Kingsley Manga Bell
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell, we sense
His eye lens carrying the history of a body,
touching the lens of a body,
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell, we sense
His looks on the looks of the world he portrays
A world of warmth, a world of light,
Stronger than the cold, heavy gravity
A world of peace already there
Inside Bona Kingsley Manga Bell
Carrying on a travel,
Millennia long its wisdom
Of a world possible to live,
A light possible to sense
And sense back
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell, we sense
His eye lens carrying the history of a body,
touching the lens of a body,
Carrying the heavy,
that, when shared, when listened to,
becomes lighter,
Becomes Light
Is Light
Is
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell
Refracting back at us
Sensitive, open lensed,
Telling from his wisdom of life
Light, we sense,
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell, we sense
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell, we feel,
The love he shares with his family
The love he fills life with,
The Life he fills love with
The Light he is
Light, he is
Heavy we feel, with Light taken
Heavy we feel, with warmth shaken
Heavy we are
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell, our dear colleague, friend, brother
Bona Kingsley Manga Bell, we continue sensing you and your generous light,
telling from the possible changes from heavy to light,
we sense you behind daily carrying spotlights,
from where you share prisms
of the Good in Life,
The Good in Light
Good
And all its fractals
We remember you, our shared dear Bona Kingsley Manga Bell
We remember you, and the moments of hope you are continuing creating with your presence
We sense you¬ through the messages of light you are sending us in waves
Dear Bona Kingsley Manga Bell family,
a short life is hard to take
The good life you are spreading, dear Bona Kingsley Manga Bell family,
Your life is giving
As giving as hope is,
As moving as warmth is,
As real as beauty is
We wish to share our condolences with you, dear Bona Kingsley Manga Bell family
We remember Bona Kingsley Manga Bell through you
Through love
Through light
Millennia of energy do not disappear
They shed light
Where the heavy is unbearable
