In the Distance

Listen to poem:
In the Distance David J Walker The plan was to Scan each picture from the volumes of albums of our 40 plus years past The last effort cast Into shadows Of windows Of beveled glass Blurring Images of memories Committed to the soft burning thoughts of what life wanted to be as I see you as you see me In the distance
