Years of slowness



Soul is a slow creature,
distastes things done in haste.
It loves tiny moments,
seeks each of them,
to sniff, kiss and embrace.

Mother says to work slow
for soul to come out on the surface,
else it sinks back.
And, it then takes
years of slowness
to bring forth the creature
exiled in ones inner recess.

Years of slowness first appeared in Temper Literary Review
