Window

“The window gives the eyes a view of where the door leads.”
Quote_ by Poet

Out the window, beauty pervades,
Inside my chamber, night invades,
Out the window, I see colours,
Inside my chamber is a pathway that contours.

Out the window is a vast unknown,
Inside my chamber, I bear the seeds sown,
Out the window is a change of seasons,
Inside my chamber is the permuting of reasons.

Out the window, nature whispers,
Behind those walls, the artiste searches for what inspires,
Out the window, I'm embraced by nature,
It doesn’t consider my stature.

Out the window, are the places I desire to see,
The sages say the will dwells in me,
Out the window, I see a meadow,
A reminder of an old man's shadow.
