Whisper Sweet Nothings'

In the cold and dark night A knock on the wood door Ended the quiet silence Baffling the cottage resident A smudged white paper Laid on the old red rug Telling the dreaded words Nobody want to hear in life Lillie opened the wrinkled paper Reading the words were written With tears running down the cheeks Wishing it was a bad dream Time passed healing the scars Preparing the heart to love again When the right gentleman appears Leaving disenchantment in the past In a rainy afternoon, love bloomed Appearing a stranger in the yard Asking Lillie for a business address Surging suddenly love at first sight For Whisper Sweet Nothings' Sponsored by Julie Rodeheaver November 13, 2017
