Heart Condition

D’Verse Poets Pub – Quadrille #50 – murmur

De has us murmuring to ourselves at the Pub today


Heart Condition

An affliction of the heart
Not a-pitter or a-patter
No whooshing, beating,
Thrumming sound
Something softer
Smoother
Steady
A whisper
That continues
Through the day
And through the night
A comforting small murmur
Of your voice repeating
“I love you”

  1. I love the shape of your Quadrille, Candy, like a cardiogram, the sound effects of the heart and the final lines are so gentle and heartfelt (pardon the pun)!.

  2. Love the sounds! And I too was struck by the shape – there’s an invisible heart outline between softer and murmur

    The lovely little voice will insist in making its presence felt! Very true, Candy!
