Fay Slimm Poems

Brimming with care, prepared is our love-cup.

Thirst quenches deeper now nectar runs clear.
Not wanting to waste in sips, I drink up.
...

A certain portion of happniess
Is due every race and creed.
As much as the heart expresses,
As much as the senses need.
...

Crucial to living is finding the taste
Of amazement at being alive.

.......................Thirst
...

Water, transparent as crystal,
Tastes of darkness when night falls,
While on evening sands, in fitful
Patterns, pebbles like trelissed shawls
...

Love does not lie easy with unkindness.

Bed-mates of Love yield place to the power
Which makes love supreme, and have reminders
...

Armchair explorers, just like me,
Would like no better destiny
Than meeting creatures constantly
In close encounter naturally.
...

Light creeps casually along misty panes,
Spreads it's creamy white on shadowy walls,
Pauses to hang up night's corners to dry,
I, unchained now, awake smelling sweet morning.
...

And the day now came

When the risk it took
...

Beyond the long and often lonely wait,
Beset by urges strange from deep within
Pulsate demands to culminate
In Motherhood
...

What defines the worthy phrase 'child of God'?
No age or gender demanded,
neither does wealth enter to honour the title.
It takes loving kindness, and random
...
