Many Windows
Windows are important

The cold winter air came one night.
It froze the dew that had settled on the leaves of the plants.
The plants that had once made my yard so beautiful and full.
Now my garden that is a yard is brown and the leaves droop.
I must wait for the sun, once again, come to a closer proximity
To warm thing and make them green again.

It is cold and grey today
Yet, I have the blinds pulled high,
Because, I am thankful, still, for having a house.
No more apartments:
No more midnight rendevous "concerts" in the bathroom with the surrounding neighbors.
No more concern of the volume of myself
No more concern of the volume of others
No more waiting in line at the mailbox
Or the laundry room
No more worries about my parking spot.

I have a yard
I have a house
and...

I have many windows to watch the sun rise and fall!
