On sunshiny mornings I'll Perch myself on the edge of The sink and look past the Basil and cyclamen Past the stained glass birds And rainbow crystals And I will look at the trees As I feel the poetry and taste cold pizza.
When it starts to rain I Will brew myself a blue mug of expensive Imported tea and sit upon the Unswept linoleum as I listen to the Refrigerator rumble behind my head And the rain echo in sheets on the skylight.
And once in awhile a Stray drop comes through the window.
If I ever find myself lonely I'll take the six minutes back to the Place that never sleeps and Drape myself on the humming stairs with my other half To remind myself that Solitude is a gift.
People change but Houses stay the same.
There is much to be found When you stop sitting in chairs And realize that the place you call Home is a place to feel safe.
