Whispering Wisdom’s second poetry competition invites you to explore the theme of LOVE. Kahlil Gibran wrote that ‘work is love made visible’ and William Blake wrote, ‘To see the world in a grain of sand/And Heaven in a wild flower’ – both poets show us how the everyday, the mundane, can be elevated through the experience and perception of love. The organizer is looking for heartfelt, reflective, or surprising interpretations of this universal experience.
