I hear your voice across the boundaries of time In faint whispers as I lie in slumber at night. Death may not separate nor still our precious bond. Let me feel the warmth of your breath on my ears and neck And feel you as close to me as my beating heart. Visit me, my darling, in sweet dreams as ardent as reality. Dreams that will stay with me in love’s vivid memories. I will keep longing and listening for those whispers of love Until I rejoin you at the gates of God’s heavenly realm Where the light of our souls will blend with music’s harmony. 6-12-20 ~Fifth Place Premiere Contest~ 'Whisper to me' Poetry Contest sponsor Regina Riddle
