TENDED.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Tended.

 

Shade her spent tears with green.
Cast a cool shadowy pattern of leafiest salve over
over the burnt-out condition of her 
barren pasture and over-worked feelings.

 

 

Let compassionate breezes 
drift around present doubt found in her mind,
sow gentle seeds on past-scarred parts 
and let healing start in her broken dreams. 

 

Make her a garden of peace.   
Watch her heart blossom and as confidence grows 
in a true caring love welcome her wary 
responses as newly-found  trust increases.

 

Her growing ground once freely
flourished and tended it can be flowering again
with weeds of betrayal uprooted and
cleared those hard rocks of hurtful deceit.

  • ANGELA & BRIAN

    ANGELA HERE (nearly Midnight !) Love the picture ! It is ME searching the skies for BA flying my BRIAN back to me again (OCTOBER !) Ahhhhh FAY : how Precious & Sensitive are we Ladies ? We need to be restored each night as we slumber away : our burned out feelings ! We give out so so much LOVE in all we do ! We do need sensitive breezes to restore our Dreams ! We do need Peace & caring Love ! The gardens of our life do get overgrown with weeds with the pace of life : but with much TLC we can blossom in the Morning ! My JOB requires a Healing Touch and Female Physios bring a cornucopia of TLC to the JOB ! BUT we do need to be Spiritually : Mentally & Physically restored at the end of each day. I need someone to give Me a soothing Aromatherapy Massage : AMEN !

    Thanks for your Poem : thought provoking at the
    close of the Day : Blessings & Love & Peace
    Love : ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡

    May she feel again the compost of adulation as the muck spreader of good fortune makes fertile her bed.
