Fine imagery, Fay.
Lovers of dawn and early morning. Find a spot any spot and bide there for longer than a while.

You have a gift of expression that paints beautiful pictures in the minds eye. Gentle words that evoke emotion, and make me smile. Thank you for the start to my day!

The garden before you, or the one in your mind\'s eye must be a sight to behold rich in the nurture and cherish you give us in your poetry such that visions unfold of these delicate natural blooms.
I\'ve said, along with others and many times, you truly do have such a talent in this poetic craft. None here bring such a \"realness\" to natural beauty as do your fingers.

\'Pooled reminders
float away
in un-rest\'..
(dear memory, i seek peace
I\'ll surrender to your will
if you but, allow me some grace
period
where, all that is Spring
in my eyes
is not already, late Autumn
funerals
in my, world weary
heart...
I ask only, that I see reality
free of taint
grant me, even that shadow
of mercy
dear memory...)
well, there you go dear Fay
I read, your words and again
get all watery eyed
and splurge on the inspiration
your art, so often provides me
...
this was a little, too emotional
dived-in too quick, truth
is a tiring thing, to champion
i\'ll stop here now, and humbly
thank you!

There you go again, Fay - a highly textured picture of nature\'s processes which provide such reassurance................
Your usual rich imagery presented with multifarious structural forms continue to engage me.

For me you brought to mind the magic of mother nature who has a use for all the flotsum and jetsum of the natural world. There is no waste, everything has a purpose found for it.
All the more shameful the shadow of plastic waste etc we have imposed upon our home in careless and now mindless abuse. We shall learn how forgiving mother nature will be. What are we doing?

And the wild predatory majesty is just what we see when fortunate enough to observe the hunt.
Brought back memories of watching these (or similar - I\'m no ornithologist) raptors in action.

Beautifully penned dear poetess. I\'ve often watched birds of prey gliding, circling and wished I could soar. Funny to think that such beauty of motion can result in death for an unsuspecting ground dweller. As always, your words capture the mind and the heart.

such a vivid scene, you\'ve painted
dear Fay
a unique, read
with poetic voice, allowing us
relieve the experience
and the awe, felt in witnessing
such majestic grace, in nature\'s
uncompromisingly brutal, power
...
when i worked at harrods
we used to get an eagle handler
come every week
and let that magnificent
and HUGE
thoroughbred of a creature, roam
around
to scare away the other birds...
reading your words
took me right back to that moment
thank you!

so sad,
that nowadays, warped
feminist \'ideals\' - means
some, individuals
see roses as a crude fallacy
and so, this vital tool
we clumsy, men
had, to showcase our feelings
has been stolen from us
and so, we\'re left with one less
option
to make our partner, heed
the feelings we keep within
(feeling\'s, that yearn
to spell
devotion, in words:
\'Sweet with intrigue being itself,
bud-tight but becoming
unfurled one precious red rose
sent from long distance
holds telling beauty\'
someone, is falling in love
wholeheartedly and is desperate
to let her know, immediately
like, one more breath
she takes without her knowing
equates
to one more second, devoid
of the happiness
she should be draped within
raining, petals of joy
from the sky above
clouds, spelling of adoration
and hope
and hope!)
simply Beautiful, dear Fay
so gentle and tender in tone
words caressing a lover\'s heart
like
fingers, carefully brush
petals
careful, to not stir
merely wanting, needing
to once more
touch, that treasured nature
of the one, our veins
welcome, with that drumming
pulsing
in ears glowing, that red rose
nervousness..
lol
(as-ever
your decadent poetry
never fails to bring out
the romantic in me)
