Listen to poem:

Until Now

Until Now
David J Walker

This poem was waiting for
The right paper before 
It is said 
It is Written 
of 
Printed plain words 

until now 
unspoken 
Thoughts and hearts in clouds 
Crowds of dry denizens crying in the dust

Until now 
Unbroken 
On the edge of ether and untried ideas
Of silent sentiments forming the Brokering Reinforcements 

Until now
Unavowed nor
Vetted in sentiments of censored compunctions
Flowing in moonlit waterfall forests 

		Until now 
		Unnoticed 
the Winer is welcomed with inevitable approbation
And essential acclamation while privately negotiating with Spring

		Until now
		We thought winter might never end 
		With summers anticipation

Thanks, Paula. Don't the seasons seem to come and go much faster as we grow older?

Hello David Walker, winter likes to stay longer. Sometimes winter stays until April. Or until the end of march. Enjoy your day my friend.
