Whispers to Heaven

If I whisper quietly
And do not scream and shout
Will my words be heard
Or will they merely bounce about?

Can a soft melody
That stirs deep within
Ever find an outlet
In a world rioting about?

Would the world notice
If I quietly slipped away
Saved my silenced voice
For a place where songs are heard?

Words float quietly past
Often falling on deaf ears
Even though they soar and soar
Until they reach the Heavens.

For above the clouds so high
Even my faint whisper
Can be heard like a trumpet
As melodies combine

My song may never be hummed
By your self serving lips
Yet I know -
My heart's quiet whispers sing in Heaven.
