Listening to every heart

From Lips of The Whisperer

            to mine ears come his words so sure
        from his lips, he, the Whisperer,
     tender pensiveness of melody
meant to be heard by only me

O listen listen, my heart sings
     sonnets upon sonnets do ring
        free'd verse rhythmically sweeps
            me to passionate depths, I weep

            soft warm breath to lobe of mine
        intoxicatingly spoken, sublime
     when there is this, no need for wine
enchanting me, does he, for all time…

to mine ears come his words ever sure
               from his lips, he, the Whisperer…

I can almost feel his breath upon my neck.  This is wonderfully descriptive.  I'm saving this one!

Hugs and Kisses,

Sunshine, such a sensual theme, so well expressed. Whispering is, indeed, an intimate affair...whispered poetry is ecstasy. (and sometimes, even when the Whisperer is unaware of the Whisperee)

Breyer Rose, welcome to Passions...thank you for reading...I'm so glad you could feel this one...but before you save this, read some of the other poets' works first...as there are far many more out there that surpass this... enjoy your stay...

Claire...don't you suppose that most of the Whisperers and Whisperees are among the you's and me's? LOL! So enjoyed your comment... thanks...

First off I now read aloud.....I have learned my lesson and yes I heard it this last time.  Sometimes I think I must have been kicked in the head by my horse.LOL

Now onto this one........Well it is sensual for sure...but in a way that is more like inviting peaceful intimacy...sort of like one of those quiet moments we treasure so much.  The format I absolutely love as it seems to float in the wind to our ears.  
Loved it much as you already knew.

Oh Sunshine ... this has to become a favorite of mine!  It has the earmarks of a classic ... so beautifully expressed, and the flow just sweeps beautifully from thought to beautiful thought! Incredible Sunshine!  

Best wishes,
/Kit

Karilea,
        this is just wonderful. . . so soft and delicate. . . I can almost hear it. . . softly. . . in the echoes of my mind. . .

Sometimes, the whisperer is aware. . . thank you for showing us. . .
