Whisper To Me

Whisper To Me

Whisper, Whisper To Me
Once again.
I hunger for your secure,
Tender, steady embrace.


Whisper, Whisper To Me
You're voice, is the strength,
I've always relied on.
To stand alone.


Whisper, Whisper To Me
My insecurities vanish
In just a wisp, of a hush
Within you're breath.

Whisper, Whisper To Me
Once again.

Now I have doubts that my generation was more romantic. We had "Shout Shout Knock yourself out". Sweet write.

Lovely in its softness; we all need the tender strength of others to keep insecurities atway.

Thanks again for another visit. You're the best! This one is a little out of "my comfort zone" type of poem. I haven't written "romance-like" poetry before. My dream poem to write, would to be able to write like thoes of the 18th & 19th century romantic poetry writers. "Goose Bumpy", If you know what I mean. LOL

Welcome to the site. Nice light write you have here. Just replace each "you're" with "your". What you have in both places is a contraction of "you are". Also, you missed typing the "t" key on your keyboard when you attempted to enter the word "strength" in the second line of your second verse. Still, this is a nice write.

Thank You for the visit. I am unable to invite you over for tea. How about we try and keep up on poetry exchanging instead? I don't think we ever really get over the loss of loved ones. I think of all the things my Grandma taught me. How to crouchet, make barbie clothes & of course, peanut butter cookies.-YUM- But the most important thing she ever taught me, was if you don't have something good to say about someone it's best you say nothing at all. She never even said thoes words She lived by them.
