Silent whispers

Whispers of hope and love

Silent Whispers

The moon shone it's light

Down on her face one winter night

It took her right back to that place

The time they stood in a warm embrace

Standing so close, trying to beat the cold

Through just their eyes, a story was told

Soundless words filled the air,

Stone cold hearts melted in a stare

Intertwined hands started to come loose,

Standing at a crossroads, what path should they choose? 

They took the path less traveled by,

The road that few would dare to try

Where the falls are low and the climbs are steep

But promises are meant to keep

Run out of the darkness with hearts full of hope

From a world full of misery, they would elope.

One of my happier/more hopeful writes. I hope you like it!

I had glimpses of Robert Frost and John Keats in your work as if both the poets decided to come together for one a tour de force. Great work.

[Spacecadet]

Wow, that has to be the greatest compliment I have received to date! Thank you so much for your kind words :)

[Roger Turgeon]

I'm fond of soundless communications and stare-brought transformations. The road less travelled is often taken by those with nothing to lose.

[Spacecadet]

That's some food for thought :) Thanks for the review Roger!

[Traci]

This is the first piece of yours I read and I am quite impressed.
I perceived this as one reflecting on memories, happier moments in time.
Love the imagery and word choice, very emotional and heart felt.
Always am happy when I come across a new soulful writer and I look forward to reading more of your wonderful work of art.

[Spacecadet]

Thank you very much, it makes me happy that you enjoyed it. I love soulful discovering writing as well and I hope you do in fact read my other pieces in the future :)

[Spacecadet]

*discovering soulful writing, sorry.

[ur_ginger_girl]

[Spacecadet]

The two people make their own little world :)
Thanks, I'm glad you like it!

It's funny, it seemed to be hopeful and happy like the recent reviewers mentioned, but when I reread, the past tense used in the first paragraph made me feel as though she was looking back on this. And when do you really look back on the good moments ? Usually in times of need, or heartbreak. Definitely, it is a romantic piece, but possibly not as full of hope as we'd like to believe. I like your style and your poems do not seem to be rushed and thrown onto a page in mere minutes. I will be looking out for more ! Cheers !

[Spacecadet]

It's really awesome when someone read your poem and perceives it in a completely different way than everyone else and finds that little catch that you sneakily put in there! I didn't actually put much thought into that either but now that you mentioned it, it's true! This creates a twist, gives the poem a whole different meaning. I love it! Thanks for that :)
