David Walker Poet Rhyme

Awaiting the Knock At the Door

Awaiting the Knock at the Door
David J Walker

We are gathered, 
But not together, 

in thought
And prayer

In anticipation of a knock a
At the door
That only One may hear

Are you there, we constantly ask
Slumped and head bowed 
His eyes slightly open

And in a nod and a gasp the answer, yes
But only for now, He whispers 

As he thumbs through 
93 chapters of life

We are gathered together
Awaiting the phone to ring
