Looking out of Windows

Sunbeams window peep falling
Through Venetian blinds Zebra striped
On Berber patterns of outside reckonings
Whilst fireplace watching spellbound holds me
Gazing flame to smoke drafting wishes  
Burning reality on second hand ticking
Even as the clock scolds me squirrel-like
Chattering wall-perched as I hoard away
Buried nut memories from Autumn.

You created a picture in words

I like it although it hinted of nowhere to go and nothing to do

Nice painting of winter in words, and a nice place to stay inside, and reflect in.
