Rose Whittington Poems

Like the shining sun you light up my day
Your sunlight is my heart's constant desire
To breathe it is your beams that I require
So to the sky I turn when miles away
...

Say it again, say it again
Let it seep down in my skin
Say the words that will provide
That temporary pulsing pride
...

I know the wrath of the waves that once crashed, crashed on this sandy shore
Like the beating of a drum becoming stronger, stronger.

I know the howling of the wind that shrieked, shrieked
Like a wolf's bay at the moon getting louder, louder.
...

Whispers in the dark
Secrets just for us
Laughter in your arms
Maybe we're just different
...
