Awkward Space

Limericks as stanzas..  is that a thing?

In a little corner, by the window
A tiny, potted, plant does grow
Odd and unconventional
Awfully untraditional
But this is where I tend to go

Something that feels so out of place 
Rejected, awkward, filler space
An offbeat
Few square feet
In my mind, along the lines, I trace

We share a moment every single day
When our time is up, I want to stay
Feet hit floor
Out the door
The world around looks beige and grey
