Outside Our Window

Pretty green, blue, pink, red and white colors!
My gaze bounces from one to the other.
Looking through my window, senses confer 
how sight-touch turns thoughts to my lover.

White and pink from each periwinkle;
peaking blue sky; red tomatoes, green crinkle;
growth from onions and new peppers may twinkle.
Much in window’s pane does besprinkle.

Looking out, the feeling of harmony
reminds me of love’s perfect reverie:
A special day of laboring happily
while together we played plant botany.

Thank you, James. It is real and colorful and my balcony - loaded with plant life, but, alas, fall is showing her face. Thanks again for commenting ... CayCay

Yours is busy, busy, mine quiet and serene. Want to window swap? There are times when the hustle and bustle from your view would do me good! Thank you for commenting, Wendy ... CayCay
