WHISPERS Whispers, just whispers, was it the wind, Sweet breezes blow by me, where has she been, Memories, fond memories, chased by the pain, Voices that whisper, she’s gone again. Lonely, just lonely, left all alone, Moonlight shadows, heart turns to stone, Sorrows, deep sorrows, burden the soul, Regret and despair, claim their toll. A moment, one moment, what did I hear? Was it the wind, whisper she’s there? Falling, I’m falling, into the past, She’ll not return, forever at last. Leaving, I’m leaving, time to move on, Misty last memories, I’m finally done. Breezes, new breezes, sweet morning dew, She cries as she whispers, I’ll always love you. Wm. Tracey Bakelar |

This is a thoughtful yet sombre piece of work. You have written it well and, after finishing it, there is a need to go back and read it again. |

WTBAKELAR, Lines in poetry need not rhyme, but they should make sense. I'd try for more simplicity, and clarity. Bobby [This message has been edited by Robert E. Jordan (09-10-2008 10:02 PM).] |

Lovely lyrical tempo which lends itself well to the meloncholy of the piece. I really liked the style you chose to carry this beautiful lament. |
