Oh yes, I did say poem, while looking for some notes in my notebooks I came across some poems I’ve written a few years back. Also, I found my very first poem I wrote 15 years ago.
Oh yes, for a 24 years older, I was being spontaneous for entering a Poetry Contest.(It was a free contest. So, I said why not try it.) I sent my poem to the place without mentioning it to anyone.
I did come in at second place, I had to sign an affidavit form and check for any mistakes before sending my poem back. My poem some suppose to get it publish. in a poetry collection book.
The sad thing about this, there was a major family emergency, that shook my family at the same time. (This is where I learned firsthand, How serious a Diabetic coma and Stroke really was. Sorry, going off the subject. I might post something about it in a later post.)
Anyway, I lost track of this poem, which means it is probably in a poetry book out there somewhere.
Oh, I have to admit one thing, after reading this poem again. I wonder How was it possible for this poem to place second. Also, I am no poet.
Only A Whisper
I’m only a whisper
That he does not hear
How dear he is to me
So I whisper it low
For he does not know
How much I love him so.
But I am not beautiful
As those he date,
Knowing this I fear my fate
That I maybe too late
This is why I hate
To Say it out loud
Or in crowd
So I whisper it low
For he does not know
I love him so.

I guess I could say this poem at one time meant something to me. However, like a saying goes that’s water under the bridge.
Now, I am going back to editing my chapter, which is going very slow.
