Barely Heard Through All The Whispers

Pray hush now
and listen
can you make out
the words
being muttered
into beards,
through teeth,
across tongues
and over gums
around the world ..
Well then,
be sure to note
each one
of these I choose
to share
with you today ..
Expressed,
handed down
and otherwise
conveyed, that is ..
Between one old
forbidden
lover and another ..
Now barely whispered ..

Hello Neville, I enjoyed this, made me think about secret language used to hide the context of conversations. Only those that understand, know the meaning or the mutterings
kind regardsΒ

Perhaps Nev, one shouldn't dare to ask what inspired a poet to write their poem.
To deconstruct and clarify what's on offer or even what's sublime between its lines.
Simply for the want of spoiling its magic.
Nice one Nev and this beguiled reader is back tomorrow night to see and catch up on what else your magic pen has written up.
And thanks for sharing something top drawer :)
