Whisper
_By Poet_
Here is a simple list
Of the whispers that exist...
A gentle, soothing sound that calms
A child in their parent's arms.
An intimacy shared between just two
Echoing the sentiment, "I love you."
The way we speak around those who sleep.
A way to pacify those who weep.
The way classmates talk when silence is required.
The communication had when a life has expired.
A secret shared between two friends.
A voice in a head that never ends.
A memory of someone special at heart
Who we carry through each life's part...
Softly, softly the whispers are there
If we listen closely, each whisper we'll hear.
