Looking Out

 

There is a house

Beautifully blue.

Shuttered windows

Picket fence too.

 

A family inside

Looking out.

Wondering why

What it’s about.

 

Burdened with truth

Tear filled eyes.

Stuck in time

Looking for lies.

 

It’s the same

Today, tomorrow.

What a shame

A house of sorrow.

Your words carry a certain sadness. A family filled with the discontent of who they are. Seems to be too common these days.

Peace,
Dayvid

What family doesn't go through seasons of sorrow?
No family I know.
I wish for those old fashioned days of neighbors and prayers.
Beautiful poetry- very touching.

Deb,

You make this seem like such a happy family when all too often, "happy families aren't what they seem. Excellent poem.

Mary
