David Walker Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Promises Made Out of Sight

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

Gary Radice June 26, 2021 at 7:14 AM 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. :) David Walker June 27, 2021 at 9:29 AM 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
