Outside My Window - Collaboration With Chris Green
The tree next to my window
Waves with its leaves all day
As if it thinks I'm lonely
Or does it want to play?
Its branches create shadows
That dance across the room
I wonder if it notices
My smile full in bloom
The small birds living in it
Sing music to its dance
From dawn to dusk I listen
Smile at their bird-romance
And then I see the butterflies
With colors bright and true
Reds and greens and violets
Mixed in with shades of blue
Don't think my bed is boring
I never feel depressed
For I just need to look outside
To know that I am blessed
