A Whisper Of Love

He whispered three words,
but nobody's ears heard.
He wanted her to know,
but he failed to show.
What he felt, so with it he dealt.
So he said it a little louder,
so much more prouder.
So the whole world would know,
what he couldn't show.
He knew she had heard,
Those three precious words,
for she smiled a smile,
that made it all worth while.
I love you, he sighed
I love you too, she replied
Those were the words the lovers said.
And those were the words that you, dear read.., have read.
