A Lady Whispers


The lady whispers
When she is unsure

The lady’s voice rings clear
When she touches life’s flesh

The lady whispers
When toil seems to outweigh gain

The lady’s voice rings clear
When her goal is clear ahead

The lady whispers
When the foot slides back farther than the step

The lady’s voice rings clear
When she hears her children’s laughter

The lady whispers
When on a sunny day, clouds still seem to hang over her

The lady’s voice rings clear
When her life’s passionate work is met

The lady whispers
When the hammer seems to bend rather than strengthen the steel

The lady’s voice rings clear
When the last blemish is washed from her past
