Whisper Killed Comments

Rating: 5.0

My hand is still in yours. A distant leaf
Lies whisper killed upon the rigid grass.
Frost clinks like ice against the window glass.
When will monotony give us relief?

a very powerful moment, having to say goodbye but not wanting too... i don't think I can bear to watch the ending....

Good imagery artfully built around words- rigid…ice…stone...cold…stiff… a whisper that came floating from a distance into vast sky- mind- lies underneath to it –on grass- lifeless…hand in hand tightened though… what feels stiffness? Yes, the vast sky- the mind… The poem ten plus grade...

There are many beautiful lines in this piece but the one that gets me the most is: 'Frost clinks like ice against the window glass.' It lends a delicate musical touch to the poem. Take care... Leonard

Sandra, your gift, in part, is that of voicing what those of us who cannot wish to, need to... I love you dearly for this and more. This poem aches and embraces. Your art is such that I cannot be jealous - - only joyful! Love, Esther : ] P.S. The window imagery, among other things, reminds me of Emily Dickenson's world within...

Sandra, this is very stylish poetry. I think it is because the iambic pentameter never intrudes, but enhances. Your images are clear and cold 'stiff twilight' and yet there is a strong personal warmth behind your words. Wonderful penning. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

breath-taking. this style is so unique, you use the perfect words to sculpt to moment you want us to be apart of. it takes every physical aspect of that particular instance and infuses them with the way you felt when you experienced them. i think this is the best type of poem. none of these 'suicidal sonnets' we get from time to time. this is true poetry~

I really loved this poem - all of it - but especially I liked the subtle use of audial detail and visual imagery. It reminded me somehow of the delicate pattern of frost on a window pane. Beautiful and original!
