Walls Can Come Down. Poem by Fay Slimm

Bulwarking their message to keep out - (or in) ,
Wall shouts it's menace to wall.
Heralds of fear in days long ago,
Some walls brooked no breaching at all.

Yet defences of mind hold no less a fear,
Errecting - - Exclusion! - Keep Out! .
Fierce ramparts built high to withstand even Love,
But Love will prevail without doubt.

Love will smash with soft blows
Walls stronger than steel.
Persistently chipping away
With calls of the heart. What mighty rampart
Has ever been able to stand in Love's way?
