AS THE SONG WHISPERS

"Music and Rhythm find their way into the secret places of the soul." -anonymous





As the song whispers, "speak softly…"

His heart beats slowly.

His mind but a pilgrim, going back to the wondrous years,

the most celebrated love…shining glory, happy tears

But time trickling too quickly like a sand

Things go out of hand…

when death arrives and he's weak unguarded

He needs to face with faith, undaunted

As the sun goes down and turned red like blood,

His hand being kissed no longer, his role ends of playing god.


The song whispers again....

A new hand being kissed,

While his own wreath is finally lain

He is surely missed.

author's note:

i wrote this poem drawing from an inspiration after watching one of the greatest films ever, the GodFather 3. The song, "Speaks Softly Love" means so much to me because my late mother loves this song dearly. The love is indescribable that I can feel it right now, overflowing...Man may rise in his splendor but soon, He may fall...his glory wanes. What is left is his treasured memory and his great love.
