Ghost Town

Listen to poem:

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

Hi, enjoyed reading your poem, loved the dream like quality you depicted in your verse reminded me of Hotel California by the Eagles. Nice work.

Hello David Walker, in a ghost town there is no one there. That is why they call it a ghost town. Enjoy your day my friend.
