Fill the gap
Between the trees
Soften the street
And perhaps, even me.
The yellow window squares
Are tiny pictures
Of other lives
And I wonder
If the people inside
Ever look out
At the street
And also wonder
About people like me.
Gypsy Moon
Fill the gap
Between the trees
Very nice Sir! I like poetry, but find theres always so much over blown flowery and squiggly imagery at work in many; while I do enjoy those even still I'm always overjoyed at pieces such as this one!
thank you! I see your tastes run into simple, basic - Can't say as I always write that way, but I have been lately :)
Love it! Beautiful imagery...I've often had the same 'wonderings'...
thanks, Lynn
Love the visual I get from the idea of yellow windows being tiny pictures of other lives. Kinda reminds me of that movie "Rear Window"
Yes, loved that Hitchcock film :)
I thought it was Hitchcock but didn't want to say just in case I was wrong! ( :
You're very good @johnjgeddes! I love all your poems. ♥
thanks, Leah
so the blue shadows are projected by the windows to between the trees. is that suppose imply a mood?
The blue shadows are cast by the Moon that is implied in the title but is not directly mentioned in the poem - they suggest loneliness and sadness - the gold windows suggest life and happiness.
This is really good!
thanks
