Listen to poem:

From Falling Light

From Falling Light
David J Walker

In the fading light of evening
Falling stars come calling

As we seek the compensations 
of  quiet companionship 

in the garden growing
in gracious surroundings

where sitting and saying nothing
is a treasured conversation 

of a lavish silence between the Us
that is our understanding

of the forever of our
lives together

when you turn to say
It’s time to come in darling

And I follow you
