sometimes a whisper
can be difficult to hear
but there's nothing quite as sensual
as a whisper in your ear
a whisper from your lover
telling of her needs
or a whisper of the wind
as its blowing through the trees
a whisper that's so gentle
as through the wheat it blows
a whisper in your best friend's ear
of a secret that you know
a whisper of a thought
that can be so profound
or a whisper of the leaves
as they're falling to the ground
a whisper of time
that feels like a year
a whisper that's so touching
it brings about a tear
a whisper from your Grandpa
as he's nearing close to death
or a whisper from a newborn
and that newborn baby's breath
yeah sometimes whispers
can be difficult to hear
but if you're really listening
you can hear them loud and clear
