A Small Whisper

A Small Whisper

A Poem by Anita B Jacques
"

My very first poem.

Previous Version
This is a previous version of A Small Whisper.



A small whisper in my ear tells me

"Time"

But it seems so far away

 To ease the pain...

I can see you at night

Waiting for me

You tell me

"Not Yet

When work is done

You can join me

In

Time"

Dear Annie!
Time....four alphabet letters and yet it spans eternity! I have read your note that you heard this word whispered after your husband died. It is only time until we shall join our loved ones again! This is a most thought provoking write that instructs me to enjoy what I have before it is gone!
Thank you for making me stop to think!
Blessings!
Sheila

Kinda chilling in a way, almost like communicating with the other side with a fallen loved one... short but really powerful.

Painful, sad. You managed to bring out a lot of emotion in very little words.

Beautifully done Annie...Time is all we have on this earth...how we use it, is what makes our lives worthwhile. The older we get, the more we realize how precious it is...and if we have lost love ones, we looke forward to the day we are reunited forever!
