Whisper of Summer
You never said those words
They never left your lips
Until now
I thought it, hoped it
Longingly
Then the truth escaped
Like the steamy breath
Of an icy day
In Winter
This is too cold for me
The distance too far
To hear you fully
But my arms are still warm
My heart still beats
My ears miss your voice
I long
For the forgiveness call
Of Spring
With her green shoots
Of healing stillness
And hope
The whisper of Summer
The warmness of sun.
Therapy for the soul
I sit here and meditate
On you; your seasons
I still love them
Yet the barefoot dancing
Twirling on the green grass
In the sunshine.. still my favourite.
Perhaps
After all
A whisper is all we really need
