Musings of Word Whisperers

Beloved lovers of words
love wordplay and twiddles
riddles and entwining romps
entangling twists and turns...

Listen to poem:

When wistful,
wanton whispers
are overheard, 
they cause 
emotional feelings
to fail.
The hearer becomes 
withdrawn, 
and the depression 
casts a grim, 
gloomy shroud
of melancholy, 
over the frail, 
impaled self esteem....

Winter’s Whisperers

The cardinal returns
memories of cold chill
drawing him back.
A whisper teasing his DNA,
the call of the woodpecker’s drum
reminiscently echoing 
in a winter’s past.
Sitting on the rusted chain link
he wonders.

Moonlight 
whispers
feral dreams

9 lives 

on
soft 
pause

Time bomb time womb times
Dark light spaces between our
birth life whisperers, tangent told
and tried by ego-etiquette egadathons, 
yet we all fall short into how we hold each other
side by side in a sometimes listless sublime 
treasure trove of banal love designs
claiming a socio-coaxial critical correspondent
climax ever instilling potent long lifeforms sailing on
miniscule observations from places far, far away....

She rails at unseen whisperers,
un-wrappers of gooey carmels.
Her hat is high and so am I,
drunk on her liederkranz chanel.

I imagine a well-placed apple
replacing her feathered chapeau.
An unpracticed William Tell zings
her headless with his bow.

Clever subtitles explain the plot.
The score sets an ominous tone.
Things are fine till next to me sits
a girl wearing limburger cologne.

We were floating in our love
Beautiful clouds
The whisperers were weeping
You were light in simplicity
I was dense in pride
The whisperers' winds swept me away
To the east north west south
I shed rains of tears in the process
This smooth wind of wisdom
Carried me back to you
You are still where I left you
I am floating back to you
You are waiting smiling
Let me kiss you in this rainy moon
The density is gone
I am light enough now
