Whispered

Martin Healy 1956 (Chicago)



whispered words from what I remember
always felt so loving and tender
your kiss and hugs were like no other
warm and friendly
like being family in November and December

I know you're busy doing stuff
and can't answer right now
but sometime soon
let me know how you are

It’s been awhile since we have talked
but well catch up when we walk

let me know if you can
when that will be
so I can plan on that day
to be with you
