Whispers Poem by Uche Nwanze

The mother hen hears the cry of her chicks from a distance.
Daunted never by distance, our souls searching for each others warmth.
I pause as i feel your pulse, even time taunts not our love.
I hear your heartbeat from a distance. Menacing mountains never stand in our way.
I feel your presence miles away. Surging seas like Sinbad I will sojourn.
I see your flawless smiles even from afar. Epileptic Eclipse never opaques the light of our love.
I hear you calling out to me in my dreams. Death Dangling in the gates, I dare.
I can sense your sweet breath even in my sleep.
I can smell your sweet fragrance everywhere I go.
I hear the sound of your voice from a long distance.
I can hear the whispers of your name worlds apart.
A mother always hears the cry of the child of her breast.
