Whispers


Whispers    
By Jonathan Bennett
 My courage in these words? No just
    Whispers on a mountaintop,
Unexpected revelation
    Made bravely to strangers.
Whether it is world-changing rests
    Upon after descent.
If I can carry the message,
    Risk being beloved.
If I can resist temptation
    To shelter these words here—
Suspended somehow out of time
    Where none below will know
Then it might transform those I love,
    Though for good or ill?
