Soul Whispers
“The soul is silent. If it speaks at all it speaks in dreams.” ~ Louise Glück
Soul whispers, speaks to me
Plants a seed in my restless dreams
Seeking solace in darkest night
Tiny pod yearns for healing sun
To sprout, blossom and grow
And become a secret poem
That once exposed to the light
Velvet petals bloom, a beautful red rose
Dressed in splendiferous repose

You’ve captured the whispering in your deft use of sibilance in this poem, Linda, especially in the ending: ‘Dressed in splendiferous repose’.
