Listen to poem:

We the Whisperers

Hush the whisperer is exhaling his/her sighs 
whispering softly, words barely heard --

to horses
"Keep calm, big fella, I dig Yah, don't daggle the reins"
to dogs
"Down boy, down, wag Ya tail if you understand, shake hands, good boy, good boy"
to loved ones
"I love You", sweet nothings, blushed with air kisses
to lions
"Why can't you purr, Yah big kitty cat"
to whales
"Cickety click, clickety click "
to dolphins
"Tweets, tweet, click" whistles in bubbles and rattly chatter ticks"
to elephants
"Let's play forget me knots, again"
to aliens
"Get Ya AI to look up 64"

Sometimes it's really hard to keep it to a whisper, but I'm convinced they do work best. I don't know about the aliens, however. We may have to scream at them.
