David Walker Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Ghost Town

Ghost Town
David J Walker

Arriving via stagecoach dreams
	The host of the ghost town hotel

Says most of the guests 
remain to be seen 

remain in the same rooms/refrain from
complaining about the moaning /groaning 
all night long

	Who are you looking for
He says

	I don’t remember anymore
I says 
	As I fade from the dream

There’s a stage every night
	He says real polite like
From the porch of the local saloon 

Knowing he will see me 
Coming and going again

	Real soon
