Whisper Softly By Paul Wilson Whisper softly the winds will carry your words far Shout from the mountaintops your words will echo back to where you are Look beyond the clouds above into the genesis of tomorrow’s birth Close your eyes to yesterdays death live your life for all it’s worth Cast your hopes and dreams upon a midnight star The opportunity to change where you’re going…who you are Let the rain cleanse your soul let the Sun nurture you with love Spread your wings and fly forever free like a dove the bird of peace from above Come again some cool Spring morn fly upon the winds of time Whisper softly words anew forever captured in rhyme ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (02-11-2008 10:19 AM).] |

"Just learning, so please be patient with me.I just try too write with feelings from my heart and hope that my poems help too make things better in some way for the people that read them. " Paul I copied your critique message in here for this reason: This one was definitely written from the heart & that is just where it hit me. It is so beautiful it almost moved me to tears, and yes, I am a whole lot better off now having read it...serious applause for this my friend and whatever you do, keep posting....Many thanks John |

Paul~ I saw the title to this one last evening, and saved it for this morning to read~ Oh my ... I am ever pleased to read this beauty~ How beautifully you ink your thoughts~ I am particularly fond of 'whispers'~ Have a beautiful day, poet~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

effjayel...It's been awhile since I saw my critique message, I wrote that about 3-4 years ago. Even though I feel like I have improved in my writting, I still feel like I have a long way to go to measure up to some of the great poets here. So glad you liked this poem and could get something out of it. When I write I try my best to relate to the person that is gonna read it. Alot of times I try to become one with the reader and feel what others are going thru be it happy or sad feelings. Again thanks a bunch for reading and your moving reply...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |
