Whispers Whispers Soft as a kitten's fur Purring it's longing Whispers Clinging to my ear Fragile catkins Spring fresh Warm scented Whispers A muted melophone Notes insistent on my brain Electric signals Straight to my heart Whispers Blotting out the cacophony Of the world Becoming my universe Sending my blood surging Whispers The melody of the words Overtake the content You could be reciting Words from a tax guide I'd hear love Whispers I long to hear Lips pressed to me Until I turn And whisper back And the words Become a kiss |

Ohhh, yeaahhhh, Wilfred - I'm beginning to see now - sneaking in here with all these romantic words, making the gals swoon, getting them all heated up with your whisper poem. You oughta be ashamed! You oughta be embarrassed. But... you oughta be happy with how this poem turned out, too. A great transition from line 1 to the last line. Kudos to you. |

Jamie- I just kept writing verses until the 'becomes' line came out - else I'd probably still be writing  - Thank youRosebud- I think we think alike  thanks Paula- Such Talk MUST be whispered. - Thank you Poet DeVine- Many thanks - compliments from such as you are extra special Mr. Silver- You've had me chuckling all day - and now I've made a note - to read you - especially if I want to smile. Thank you. Martie- I think "Swoonable" is a lovely word - thank you for that < !signature-->~*Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring. ~ Oscar Wilde ~ [This message has been edited by Wilfred Yeats (edited 08-30-2000).] |
