Fay Slimm Poems

Broadened out, now gigantically big,
The pig held his snout to the rail.

He surveyed me, then began digging
...

The colossus of gigantic Dedication, piled high
with tasks on each skyline,
could make travelling pilgrims stop short soon,
shake life, and moderate
...

Hazily warm this serene afternoon.
No early leaf sways around windless tree,
But what do I see shyly zooming
Around bare branches - robin, eyeing me.
...

Mindfully conscious of who imposes
Such tight control, and why, I reveal
The potential real me, sensibly go
Underground for a while and conceal
...

My heart is astir with what this morning
I caught aloft under a bluebell sky.
A bird who trills high, yet smaller than small
Is it's frame, and seemed to be making reply
...

Unseen, but to few, we glow. As bearers
Of colour, borne by light's rays, which daily
Beam through our soul, with what is rarely
Known as aura, our eyes, seeing arrays
...

There is a spacious airy
Place forever ours.
No-one can take away rare
Love like we possess, hours
...

Today there is a gentleness tiding
Its way quietly into the bay, June
Beach is strewn with visitor-white, trying
To bake brown. Cottonwool clouds will quite soon
...

Kneehigh and growing, here comes summertime.
Sticky hot days and perspiring long nights.
Doing is not much in fashion in prime
Heat of day. Being is all the right
...

Thick and warm, midnight
Admonishes souls
With tight reins.
...
