Storms Of Fear. Poem by Fay Slimm

Storms Of Fear.

Rating: 5.0


Bent trees are a proof of persistent storms
Which batter against many defences
Incessantly blowing off-course, warning
No-one ahead. Gales, determined to drench
With fearful strength any opposing force,
Cannot endanger the heart, that within
Is calm. Fear is the storm which remorseless
Battles the soul, resisting strongest will
To it's ultimate break, but as trees bend
In recovery, and survive, attack
From inside needs such resources. We send
Out signals too like trees, and we fight back
With door, which without bolts cannot be made
To open up to fear. Love stands unafraid.
