A Window

As long as I have a window I have the wonder of the world What I can see is as limitless as the sky with every possibility As long as I have a window I can never feel alone For I am one with every living thing and can touch every star As long as I have a window The light will always find me I can dance with the rain and tickle the sun I will always have a friend

A wonderful poem Mike and I especially love the lines in the second stanza. "I can never be alone for I am one with every living thing and can touch every star" Absolutely beautiful! I too believe we are one with all. A fave for me. Cheers Anne :-)

From the other side of a window we have the whole world and at night the heavens. Love it in wintertime when I can look out at the snow and not feel the chill. Enjoy your weekend Mike. Tom

Wow...I really like this one, Mike. A FAVE for me. I loved the repetition "As long as I have a window," and how it is so relatable. So true. As long as we have a window we have access to earth and sky!

An uplifting rendering, Mike. A window does offer the hues of friendship without asking anything in return.
