Hope

Hope. 

Looking out my window,
What do you think I see. 
Another little window,
with someone looking at me. 

I am old and withered,
they are young and free. 
I wish they would get bolder,
and come and talk to me. 

I know this must sound silly,
but so lonely age can be. 
But someone just to talk to
would oh so comfort me.
