Making A Day. Poem by Fay Slimm

Making A Day.

Rating: 5.0


In my deepest sleep I am weaving a dream.
I am sewing the hopes of a future scheme.
I hem an embrace for my lover and I
That never unravels through hurt or lie.

In my deepest dream I am making a day
For my lover and I, which is never grey.
I embroider the sky in cornflower blue,
Then I knit us a house with a country view.

In my deepest repose I begin to stitch
A castle of joy in which we will feel rich
I am making a day like has never been,
With my lover and I as the central theme.

I love this poem. Such care has been taken to extend the metaphor of needlework throughout which lends a cohesion to the whole piece. Lovely.

In my dream i have prepared, the foundations of love solid with trust, with a little help from above building a future, to keep out the cold a place where young lovers, never grow old
