Windows

A chair by the window’s a gate to the world
When the colors of summer at  dawn are unfurled
A landscape of green and red roses in bloom
Framed by a window and viewed from my room

A window is sunshine and light growing dim
Luster of moonbeams and sun shining in
A window is truth from my eyes beaming through
The glass panes revealing my deep love for you

A window of stained glass in colors of bold
Are glass panes relating a story once told
Splendor that opens the soul to relief
A window to ponder your faith and belief

Sorrow’s a window revealing the heart
For everyone sees what you’re eyes so impart
A mirror’s a window reflecting your face
Revealing the sadness your lips can’t erase

The screen is a window where poetry lives
Where you write the songs you’re inspired to give
A poem’s a mirror, revealing your whole
A window of blue looking into your soul

Windows are windows, from truth you can’t hide
Though poised on a chair looking out from inside

The sights you see through your window are wonderful, Lady Santos...mind if I bring the tea and pull up a chair?

Liz,

Now I know why I must return to this place of passions with such eager heart it's the sheer beauty as like this I find on my blue screen in rhyme, simply awsesome friend,

Love, Cerenity
