Through my window, I see the trees of the woods
The seclusion makes me miss my old neighborhood
I see my truck resting in the drive way
As the grass glistens on this hot, humid day

There is no pavement, just long, dirt roads
I keep staring out this window in zombie mode
Oh look, here comes the mail lady
Everday she hits my mailbox cause she drives so crazy

There's not much more to see outside this window
When it's dark out, the stars shine beautifully though
What else do I see? my reflection on the glass
I must go water my yard, and it's a tiring task

(sigh) Awwwwwwww, I know moving is a big step, but I know soon you will get used to your surroundings once you settle down then everything will seem so magical! (kiss on lips) I love you so much, sweet friend, I dream of seeing the stars with you this summer so so much! (kisses) I love you, my sweet Joanna!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Ah yes, moving can be a tiring task altogether, i have done this a few times when i was a young lad.  Well, maybe when you become more accostomed to your surroundings, you will see the real beauties of your new environment. Good luck in your new home!

Step through the
barrier of my mind,
enter my soul,
feel my desire,
let my eyes guide you
into the shadows
of my heart

I remember when I moved *shudders* Lovely poem here Joanna. Very lovely indeed!

I want to die peacefully, in my sleep, like my grandfather, not screaming, terrified, like his passengers.

This got me thinking about what I see there, I like my geraniums that sit at the edge of the walkway in their own little corner of the sun.  Maybe I will rise to the challenge.  
Really nice picture outside your window RP~
