   You lean in to me
   close
   and whisper something
   in my ear -

   The words themselves are unimportant.

   It's the breath...like the building breeze
   just before a summer storm.
   First the stillness.
   Nothing
   Moves.
   Then the slow climb of heated fury...exploding
   to the storms sudden passion.
   And then...once more...the stillness.

   It's the breath.

   And what it carries.

sweet and stunning and in depth... I now want to whisper to more friends and I'd never quite thought of it like this. Makes the act so much more graceful, beautiful.

And BTW, congrats on your hundredth post, sir

Always, Alyssa

sweet memory, the soft breath of someone at my ear

you're right, it is not the words, it is the simple intimacy in the moment... sweet

A sigh of love for such a beautiful whisper... words can never be as important, for they are inferior to the expression of a single sweet breath... aaaaahhhh, such love and beauty.

Thank you...

Love,
Moca
