Redemption

Listen to poem:

Redemption
David J Walker

The unrelenting quest
For the rest of
What was meant to be said
The best intentions 

	Mislaid 
Mislead conventions 
Discarded convictions 

Colors of lost horizons 
Least of the left last rites 

The Vespers 
	of whispers
The worshipers 
The shoplifters 
			all
	Seek redemption

Before the end of the end
Of the evening
		To come

I'm still unsure as to why your work doesn't garner more comments than it does David. Your words make me think, listen and then re-read each time using the meter / cadence in which you recited. Great work. Cheers - Gary

Gary, Thank you. Admittedly, the way I write is not for everyone. I appreciate your thoughts and comments.
