Timed

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Timed.

 

Far away on first-fringed beams of morning
rides Ol' Sol's wild horses,

rays of white light
moving in sequence saddle silence 
for Venus as gifts pour from her paramour Night.

 

Stars gather for dark's dismissal, restored
to spacious vaults pale more

as they wait 'til sanctified
by call for ascension where sighted
they can display next cavalcade's candled fire.

 

Desire for his Lady of changeable form
sees Knight's won glory

now timed to break, rising  
when victorious Dawn realizes
with Venus unveiled new morning can smile.

    'rides Ol' Sol's wild horses,

    rays of white light
    moving in sequence saddle silence'..
    what Sublime wording of yearning
    one of your very best poems!
    and that's not said, lightly
    trust me..
    I thank you! for choosing to share
    your transcendent poetic talent
    with the utmost sincerity, dear Fay

    • Fay Slimm.

      Thrilling to think you consider this as one of my best efforts at nature poetry dear L.B. - - - so so pleased you found pleasure in reading of Ol Sol's wild affair with Daylight.

    • dusk arising

      Delightful poetry. A similar subject for my humble offering today also.

      The dawning is always different and there are so many ways to consider it and to address it. Something quite beautiful which you write of with a real appreciation of it's splendour - showing us new ways to look heavenward.

      • Fay Slimm.

        What a delightful comment my dear friend - - you phrase your reviews so beautifully helpful and also full of encouragement - thank you more so because at the moment I am having to curtail some of my time spent writing and posting.

        • dusk arising

          That saddens me Fay because your fine posts are so well read and appreciated here, certainly I never overlook your poetry when I am online lest I miss the delight therein. I know you'll be missed and I humbly suggest that if composition time is hard to find then show us some gems from the past which you would place before our appreciative eyes.

          • Michael Edwards

            Just read dusks SOL and now this - a double bonus day to be sure

            • Fay Slimm.

              Yes - strange how poetic minds can think alike sometimes Mike. - - Dusk's posting I thought so moving and am now on my way to seek your own offering today my clever friend.

              A majestic poetry displaying the sun, q celestial being caught in my eyes
              How well you wedded the imagery with the sunrise
              A beautiful poetry transcends across the time
              Catching the space in readers’ ‘mind
              Sunrise and sunset are beautiful
              But they turned more after going through your piece
              Marvellous dear Fay
              Well penned

            • Rozina

              Nature at its best. Magnificent.

            • Goldfinch60

              Wonderful words Fay, each new dawning is so wonderful to see and to arise in.
