Promises Made Out of Sight

Listen to poem:
Promises Made Out of Sight David J Walker The projection on the wall of Solid imagination The illumination of what might be tomorrow a day of sorrow a day of borrowed joy a day that employs furloughed friends on borrowed time I rise early in anticipation Believing the moon will set And the sun will rise As yesterday’s page turns Into tomorrow’s light The illustrations are vague But such is the stuff of Promises made Out of sight

I'm trying to comprehend why your poetry doesn't get more views and listens. David, may I ask if you are an actor or someone who uses his voice in the media (radio etc)? If not - you should. :)

Thank you, Gary. Yes, I was in broadcasting for my entire working life.. radio and TV. I was also a radio station owner for a time.. I have published some since I started writing again.. It seems to be an obsession with me. Thank you for reading
