Made-Over.

Made-Over.

A Poem by Fay Slimm

 

 

Made-Over.

 

Created by almighty Love's hand
to enjoy who I am
I try to grow daily in appreciation
of my own being.

Not ashamed of known truth
no more do I strive
to be faceless, grey-souled and
helpless with need.

I want on the real me to feed.

 

I am Passion revived.

Glad, overtaking regret, pulsates

with force of survival.


Smiles infuse drab, attract things
which delight and
freely transport reasons to find
broader highlights in

my recently made-over insight.

 

I know that true zest

could never belong to anything joyless.

 

Passively yielding appears now
to defile aims 
of fresh Self who quite buoyant yet
subtle inside sees
need of commitment to more 

firming empowerment.

 

Heartbeat submitting to nothing
but pleasure of giving,
I willingly celebrate my latest version, 
mirrored in small 

beginnings of person-improvement yet

whom Love is now revealing.

 

Recycled I may be but I like the idea

of this freer,

more enlightened, new kind-of-me.

What a wonderful journey and now, destination in near distance, Fay. I;d like bot borrow some of that hope and strength and new intentions, they're all so commendable and warm-making. Your gentle phrasing, tho restrained shows immense power and determination.. it is the way folk with a change for the best are able to face the new in life and the new in self, ' Recycled I may be but I like the idea - of this freer, - more enlightened, new kind-of-me. ' And so you should be.. self found, self-achieved in great style and meter. Thank you so very much for sharing. Take care, keep safe.
