Outside My Window

Outside my widow All the strange sights to see Can't overwhelm me With panes of glass in between I open the shutters To glimpse all that's outside I take in the great wonders From my safe haven, inside Content to admire from afar A nature I'll never know up-close A whole world in a sheet of glass Outside my window September 13, 2015

This reminds me of the great Emily Dickinson... thoughtful, dreamy and sheltered...content in the musings of her own mind. Beautiful! Always, Laura

"A nature I'll never know up-close," leaves the reader wondering. Lovely write and I love and agree with Ian's comment.
