I've made several friends along my way.
Some of them I've changed.
I like to think I help them find their voice.
Sally, for instance, had an insulting serpent's tongue.
With my help, she became calming.
William resisted change. However, in some cases,
I was able to influence whomever was near us.
Timothy and I got along quite famously indeed.
When we befriended the popular kid, they wrote an article about it.
Caroline and I are also a power couple.
Trains and even some places of worship have echoed our work.
I tried to make friends with Kevin,
but I may as well have just left him alone.
Paul is consistently useful.
When we go places plus one, we can talk to anybody.
Gabby, it seems, has a mind of her own.
It's tough to predict what we'll end up doing together!
Surely there are cases in which I am unneeded.
I just hope I'm helping them all say what they mean.
Because all alone, I'm just a whisper.

You are
the letter H
Sally, for instance, had an insulting serpent's tongue.
With my help, she became calming.
The sibilant S becomes the shushing SH
William resisted change. However, in some cases,
I was able to influence whomever was near us.
W+H - often doesn't change sounds, but sometimes is the difference between, say, wore and whore
Timothy and I got along quite famously indeed.
When we befriended the popular kid, they wrote an article about it.
T+H are paired frequently. With the popular kid, E, give the article "the"
Caroline and I are also a power couple.
Trains and even some places of worship have echoed our work.
C+H are also coupled often. CHoo-CHoos and CHurches.
I tried to make friends with Kevin,
but I may as well have just left him alone.
K+H is not seen all that often, and really doesn't change pronunciation at all.
Paul is consistently useful.
When we go places plus one, we can talk to anybody.
P+H are paired frequently. Add ONE and you get "phone".
Gabby, it seems, has a mind of her own.
It's tough to predict what we'll end up doing together!
G+H can have different sounds; for example, in "cough" vs "ought" vs "ghost" vs "hiccough" vs "Edinburgh"
Surely there are cases in which I am unneeded.
I just hope I'm helping them all say what they mean.
Because all alone, I'm just a whisper.
Alone, H is just an exhalation.
