Whisper



Quote By: Nat King Cole,  "You call it madness but I call it love "


A whisper of dreams landing on my pillow  
arriving on the nightstands of amber afterglows  
surrender to me and we'll take it nice and slow
gazing softly in each others eyes, by candle glow 
A whisper of dreams soaring like two eagles 
we will match our wings of glory to the seagulls 
then fly towards the moon with passion's equal 
in sotto voce voices, gleaned and culled
A whisper of dreams stitched by mere desire 
with every longing quenched we will retire  
to the mountain top where stars  suspire   
extracting from the sky an Angel's fire 

Burning every bridge we'll swivel up forever,       
like two matching weightless, downy feathers.

Dear Rose, your poem beautifully captures the essence of love and longing with eloquent imagery and tender emotion. Each line is filled with intimacy and passion, drawing the reader into a world of whispered dreams and shared desires. I loved the quote by Nat King Cole adds a poignant touch, enhancing the romantic atmosphere of the piece. This is an exquisite expression of affection and devotion. - Blessings, Daniel
