This is so beautiful. You're right, a bugle signifies many things when it sounds. Can be merriment, celebration, announcement of things coming and are at hand, and yes, even death. Enjoyed. It's good to be back and read your works again, Paul.

Blow that bugle Paul, and be the one to deliver music to our ears. The joyous music of all is the heralding of our Lord who has come to judge the mighty and the meek. Thank you for sharing this delightful poem.
