Our window is an ever changing frame Left to its own devices It never moves from its placement in our old home Yet never shattered once On good days, nothing but the ticking clock is disturbed Those days of silly arguments we forgot The moment the ice cream man begun his serenade On bad days grey inkblots would erase that baby blue Forcing cabin fever down our throats At the loss of movie night Yet there are the nights you sit alone, lost in the races Between short lives of the rain cloud's children Nights where you join the portrait's current mood Our window is an ever changing frame Capturing each moment of our existence Replacing your trace
