A Shelter We Build

I watch spring bud from my window.

I watch my life go by without a flicker of hope from my window.

I watch summer blossom from my window.

I watch and wonder why from my window.

I watch autumn turn to a spectrum of color from my window.

I watch as time starts to die from my window.

I watch autumn fade from red and orange 

to winter white from my window.

I watch as I die from my window.
