The Whisper Lives congeal at times, given time grow hard and unrepentant dry up and blow away like so much Oklahoma dust hearts crumble winds blow, winds blow searchers know and keep looking… searching she did and heard a whisper looked around and found a sign of possibility in dust so dry she was full of expectation and heard the whisper whispering whispers hold a promise whether here or there there shall always be a dance in a whisper dancing always a knowledge that sometime down the dusty road better will come and better will stay life will be reborn the drought will end and the dream of the whisper will become the reality reborn so that life, and love, will flow again. 21 September, 2000 ©Karilea Rilling Jungel |

Not that I don't have an original thought but Kit said just what I wanted to say - if she's not offended - let me say it too |

You will know if the whisperings will become a reality as soon as you no longer hear them but instead feel them. I sincerely wish for you to feel these whispers soon and somehow I know that you shall. You show a strength that will get you there given time and patience.

I've always been told you will find what your looking for, when you not looking at all. And in every case it has been true for me. Maybe you'll find what you looking for and you'll be unexpectedly knocked off your feet. I've seen it happen many time to others. Best Wishes |
