From My Window

The light from my window shines..
                                             Brings my eyes and dreams all outside..
                                               Birds flying so high from tree to tree..
                                              My only prayers are to write that free..

                                               The light from my window drifts past..
                                         My mind follows the wind from line one to last..
                                             The tree tops dance to the music of me..
                                         Each word a whisper that screams what I see..

                                            The light from my window is my inspiration..
                                           A place to imagine and play is my dedication..
                                                   The page is full and a title is found..
                                      All my visions and images expressed with no sound..

ok, I guessed wrong before. THIS would be your inspiration poem and it is very similar to the other one but it needed to be in an L form. I think this one fits the bill, Michael. A romantic setting you chose for your inspiration.

Beautiful Michael, I love it, I have this attraction to windows also, one time I had an apartment with none, a real dark place, so I got prints of all kinds of windows, it looked amazing, windows everywhere. I wish you the best in this contest with this lovely poem~~
