A Glimpse

I'm looking through a window - The blinds were lifted And it's such an honour! There, there's a fish Darting through, Ripples spread from each pause and flight Ivy grows and twists and climbs, Grasping all in its path The ground is covered in debris, Dust and mould A mushroom sprouts up Holding the door to another world A skeletal cheshire grins Amidst piles and piles of literature Which, when opened, Echo melodies fourth, Bouncing from non-existant walls I peer round this windowsill This fantastical world before me Neon and shadow I have caught but a glimpse And eagerly contemplate The journey The continuum of Getting-to-know-and-understand You A journey never to be completed And always changing As we collect new treasures to display And hug tight the old favourites As we grow And realize Our inner selves.
