Abby’s Windows she wakes day by distending forelegs, hind legs, in a stretch to be emulated, antsy for sun’s initiation rituals were taught by her, signals are clear and we have learned them well begging clemency if there are not enough choices to break fast from, her tail waves a pardon favored rituals begin, our only latitude at weeks end these mornings are hers and mine she waits for me to take pleasure in steaming coffee then pads to a petite chair sized for her, one would think, she graces it as if it were a small leap up, the survey has begun at her morning window, day won’t break free without her being there as I tend to reading, writing or simple other things, one ear is wary of vigilant small noises I know them all eastern horizon’s red brings gold to cerulean skies and glint to smooth coat, ears perked for first movements be it human or animal, she will know it what shall traipse before her eye line, a guttural noise tells me she knows form of the runner, this sprinter is known but then, there, a trespassing across Abby’s eye sight ~ she would take eight of its nine to chase this black feline from her gardens, barking is all she’s allowed and she is all loud though I shhhsshhh her to please talk, just talk it out for others sleep, she whimpers let me out let me out and I tell her she is good to be so watchful… predictables continue soon western windows call as sun warmed this day, Abby’s bones soak in carpets heat, eyelids flicker as squirrels dig winter’s hold of harvest without her windows, there is doubt that her soul would smile… [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 10-13-2001).] |

 BRAVO!!! I love glancing at all the stained-glass windows in an abby; they always inspire such stories to me that touch my heart dearly and help me to feel closer to Him. (big hugggssssss) They are like our own windows to the soul, shining love and reflecting it to other rooms! I love it, dearest Sunshine! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet sunshine, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
