Moonlight casting witch-like shadows, <br />silver lances pierced the gloom, <br />wind blown branches gently rapping, <br />at the window of my room, <br />shutters swinging, floorboards creaking, <br />seemed the house was mourning too, <br />felt the shadows dark were speaking <br />heard the shadows call for you. <br />Lying here in whispered silence, <br />hand upon her pillow cold, <br />closed my eyes and sensed her fragrance, <br />stroked her hair of autumn gold, <br />eyes clench shut, tears were seeping, <br />streaming random down my face, <br />memories touched, my soul was weeping <br />for her love and soft embrace. <br />Felt a warmth of breath upon me, <br />felt her fingers on my cheek, <br />heard her whisper gently to me, <br />held my breath, i dared not speak.<br /><br />Laurie hill<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/heard-her-whisper/
