David Walker Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Without Warning

Without Warning
David J Walker

Remembering when
Every weekend 
Was 50 years in the future

Remembering when Love was 
an elusive dream That didn’t mean 
A single thing if not loneliness 

Remember when rain
Was a synonym for
Depression

Remember when the Sun
Was worshiped for its
Powers to bake our skin 

Crisp and brown 
Enhancing our chances to attract
The opposite sex

Remember when we were told
We would never grow old 
Or at least we would never wrinkle

Remember when
so many things
Would never ever happen

But they have
	At last
Come to pass
Without warning
