Fay Slimm - The Only Gold.

Layering one on another,
caresses...........
Fly with gilted pen,
..........signing my destiny.

Searchers for fortune
strike only................
..........seam-gold.
Yet hidden in phrasing
is.....treasure untold.

Secrets which,
wrapped in verse,
shiny............
........and shook
To retain mystery,
..... burst when I look.

Dipped in burnished
..........molten word,
their dripping
Nectar.............
covers my tongue
...........the more I sip.

Send then a potion
............soon.
To be imbibed
.............as golden
liquid dose,
....then I can survive.
