And now you've got my attention! Take me behind the snapshot!
How does that morning sun feel on your face? Is the terrace lovely, with flowers, or a simple concrete slab...
Is the apartment building welcoming?
Threatening?
Modern or decrepit? Shiny steel or brick walked graffiti?
How do those children sound?
Are they little tykes bubbling with laughter!?
Junior High cool kids and bullies???
Can you smell the bus fumes?
You cracked the color and gave us a peek!
Challenge: Flesh it out! Tell is more!

Hello Shelley,
I can personally relate to this one. Although, I don't live in a city.
I am a country person and have been all my life. Due to my age and various health issues, I spend a lot of time on my front and back porch sitting and daydreaming.
I enjoyed this one very much. Have a great day...Bill

Welcome
Comment from Janice Canerdy
Your free-verse poem describes the everyday sights and sounds we observe from within our homes on any normal day. These are the events that make up the biggest portion of life.

Comment from Terry Palardy
I like your style of poetry, and we share an affinity for some things. I once had a website titled Beyond Old Windows ... where I wrote every day. And then I forgot to renew the domain, and so lost it. Sometimes we lose things ... sometimes we miss them. I've had a lot of loss these past five years. I'm coming back here to read poems such as yours, to find inspiration for who I used to be. Thank you for writing.

Well done on this poem, describing what you see outside your window at different times of day, giving you inspiration for your writing. Everyone of us has different views from our windows.

I love your poem. The artwork drew me in immediately and set the tone. The color story adds a moodiness to your writing. I love reading free verse poetry. Well done.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
Wow. You are living in the inner city so what you can see are walls and other windows. I have been to NYC a dozen times so I know. I'm glad in your day dream, you can see kids and school buses. Keep dreaming.
Well done.
You should write Ballad.

Comment from Teri7
This is a very interesting and well written poem about the things you see outside your window and heart from outside. You used very good descriptive words and very nice imagery from the art work you chose. Best wishes if this is a contest entry. love and blessings Teri
