When a person is angry
and filled with despair,
whisper kind words
into his ear.
A whisper will calm
all quivering nerves,
like a warm gentle breeze,
it’s a prayer when heard.
A whisper is intimate
and usually sincere.
The sound between each word
is what one really hears.
A whisper affects the senses;
makes them pulsate with life.
The whisperer must intend
to share thoughts healing and nice.
A person’s shoulder stance,
stiff from suffering and grief.
Step up to him patiently
and offer delicate relief.
Simple kind words
laced with an intended goal
whispered up so close,
you feel the hair on his lobe,
(when heartfelt and brief),
has a lasting effect
on a tortured soul.
