windows

Windows open up the world from the inside of our homes
Glass so fragile yet somehow holds everything outside at bay
Clouded or clear, they make way for viewing
The aspects of our lives we want to see
The sun and moon and each glittering star

Windows can open up our hearts to love
We lock them tight to keep out pain
But we must unlatch the lock
If we are to know where we belong
We need to shed some light on who we are

Windows open up our lives
With inspiration's power
With joy and gladness around the corner
We hope for what lies in store
As we gaze through the windows of our souls
