Looking out my window,
All I see are trees.
A gentle droop of elderflower,
Spatulate lime leaves.
I wake each day to birdsong,
Robin, thrush and tit.
And I lie here marvelling,
At the joy of it.
How can I be in London?
Is what I think each day,
The gentle hum of traffic
All that gives the game away.
A Room With A View

Beautiful poem – joining urban, rural, nature and personal all at once with a few simple words.
Thank you so much. It is a simple yet beautiful view…why complicate it?!
🙂
Glad you like it!
This has a wonderful rhythm. I am guessing your surgery has given you time to rest and write?
It has, thank you! And I am home at last with my beloved so all is good!
Few words, super vision. What else could I say?
Thank you Ann
What lovely large windows and high ceilings, Caro! You are blessed with a beautiful view and so glad you’re home now and healing! 🙂
We are!
