PACE.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Pace.

 

With eternal drop
of straight-lined fall wild
run of water, in
escaping from stone-bind
overcomes chains
by creating deafening tone
of complaint
against marriage-chained
hold before
boldly leaping down height.
In one mad moment
forsakes granite's grasping
claws and reels  
forward at thunderous pace
roars in repeated
force, cascade- desperation
on course falls, for
once in motion water takes
the path of control.

The same case to answer in
human togetherness 
if close-shackled space feels
fenced, choices 
remaining an un-addressed 
matter ferment 
for smooth flow needs duo  
expression to avoid 
danger of break, changes if
taken in time

cushion blows and re-define

compatible states.

    My Dear Fay,

    Absolutely stunning!
    Your words flow as does that waterfall. A relatable message your poem does express!

    So true...
    all it takes is ā€œone mad momentā€...

    ā€œIn one mad moment
    fosakes graniteā€™s grasping
    claws and reels
    forward at thunderous paceā€...
    ...ā€œonce in motion water takes
    the path of control.ā€

    When I saw the title ā€œPaceā€, I immediately thought of PEACE. Pace in Italian means peace. As I read the poem, I sensed peace if weā€™re given enough space to breathe freely!

    ~Laura~
