Fay Slimm Poems

To live with a loss so great
After time of month-long waiting
Would invite such natural rage,
That a child, a babe of no age
...

Living by spirit of love everlasting, I am
Daily renewed by the action of prayer
The world becomes Tutor, it's wonders unfold
Enhancing delight in my heart at what's there.
...

The colder wind today brought word of change.
With Autumn on its way soft blossoms shrink.
Berries dropp their plump hued heads in phases,
And shorter days pull Autumn to its brink.
...

Streets of small houses shut out
All but dim bulbs behind blinds

Every night flickering screens
...

On hearing the sound of warm water flushing
The scents of the Orient into my bath,
I fill with elation, my cheeks begin blushing
With anticipation. - My Bathtime is back!
...

Recalling past events we often find as
Time rolls on, splint'ring golden memories
Into fragments, we need a resolutely
Patient mind, to pick thru' pieces left behind.
...

She wrote to him of her esteem
for his work.
.............. His reply seemed keen
to meet, discuss and
...

Follow it avidly if ever you catch
A scent of real love.
Oh, it is rare.
Like high mountain lily that ever matches
...

Every once in a while something magical
Happens when ordinary life turns itself
Into the call of the wild. Soul meets soul.
...

Wintering 'neath covers of chilly heart,
Lonely for warmth, but waiting, set apart
Yet somehow anticipating, roots fed
Unnoticed, but sustained, become bedded
...
