Fay Slimm Poems

Shouldering one against the other
Mushrooms of clouds fail to discover
That boisterous behaviour ends in clash
Erupts in sleet that stings in passing.
...

Why does rain never affect me the same
On any other day of the week?
Weekend fun done, I expect some
Monday sun sometimes, not this bleak
...

Vehicles in myriads transporting the nation
Intent on gathering round yuletide hearth.
Annual homing, pilgrim migration
Decides. when arriving, Christmas can start.
...

Is anything changeless?
Love is........

Love is forever
...

Just as far as a distant hill you are.
Every star helps guide me to your heart.
My souls delights in seeing you not far
From me, each night and day that we're apart.
...

The blue of the dusk
Clusters around these
Earthbound bones, lustily
Blows cold onto cold
...

Drifts of gleaming bright accost the eye.
Breeze stirs, and each dreamily sighs.

Glowing with gold now, hedgerow and field
...

Heavy with deepest deep sleep
He feels the layers begin to unzip
And strip off, one by awakening one.
Aware now of the movements of feet
...

Caught in the middle
Of love strong-as-death
Waiting forever
For signs of redress.
...

Weeks become seasons, but in no mad rush.
Leisurely pleasured, life has become thus
That, comfortably rising, deciding our day,
We work for a while, then take time for play.
...
