Making Richer.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Making Richer.

 

Dawn hangs on leafless trees,

slivers itself floor-ward,

breaks on sleepy earth's acres,

turns first to corners

over which autumn sun snipes 

shadows before choosing

to change move-less dreamers

to action-type doers.

 

Waking, blocked ears mistake

drowsing for real

but roused, each sense knows

Heaven fades dark

slowly thus making richer those

moments where stars

still show dawn's coat all adrape

for poets like me.

          early mane captured in all its glory..

          far more than fifty shades of silver and grey here in your accompanying image... both superb.....

          • Fay Slimm.

            I love dawn's lightening shades of blue and turquoise but decided to leave those hues to poets who verse fifty shades much easier than I could do.............. big smiles at your intriguing comment and thank you amigo for dropping by.

          • ANGELA & BRIAN

            ANGELA HERE ! Good Evening FAY were back in the same Timezone now not 12 hours apart ! Your last line suggests *POEMS are spawned by Experience* and that is the theme of OUR todays & tomorrows POEM (still in draft) Today as you were inspired by THE DAWN making life richer so today we are inspired by the capriciouness of The Seasonal Change AUTUMN to WINTER ! Dawn is more predictable (but no less awesome) Autumn to Winter is unredictable and its suddenness is always a surprize how ever many we have witnessed ! Tomorrows deals MOONLIGHT WALKS - IN THE WOODS triggered by BEETHOVEN ! Loved your POEM and the PICTURE - mesmerising !

            Blessings & Love & Joy & Peace
            Love Angel & Brian ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก

              Gratitude for your continued support of my wordy efforts to magnify such things as dawn and dusk -- the inspiration in Nature can never be bettered and so glad you enjoyed the read my two friends.

            • dusk arising

              I doubt there is a view of anything, anywhere which seen through your poetic eyes, and poetic mind which would not, once recounted upon our screens by yourself, enrich our appreciation of your poetic prowess, as does todays gem.

              A great build to the theatre of those last four lines.... Why theatre?, because this piece fits together like a play with plot leading to the final vision. Woven and crafted so well.

              • Fay Slimm.

                My sincere appreciation for this very generous comment on Making Richer my friend - - am delighted you felt dawn's wealth in my few lines.

              • Goldfinch60

                Beautiful Fay, the image of dawns awakening is wonderful.

                • Fay Slimm.

                  Yes dawn has so much beauty to offer dear Andy - thanking you kindly for your visit and read.
