Life On the Rooftops

High above the sidewalks Of the city’s concrete tangle Perched atop the houses From a somewhat tilted angle You may find that there exists A great respite from the hustle A place one may escape And seek a refuge from the tussle Life on the rooftops Is one step closer to bliss A place to think or have a drink Or even steal a kiss A deck for sun and fun and friends A world unto its’ own Most favorite place to hideaway That I have ever known
