The poem expresses that all individuals are interconnected parts of humanity as a whole. It states that no person is isolated and separate from others, but rather each person is a piece of the larger community. The death of any person diminishes all of humanity, as all people are involved with one another. Therefore, when a bell tolls to mark someone's death, it serves as a reminder that it could toll for any of us.
