By The Window

[lunar glide]

You sing me stairways
tangled in your melodies
and the smell of breakfast
though I can't fly with you yet
(for technical reasons)

How brief was the moment
you taught me to fry eggs
yet it still overloads my heart
and is the light in my kitchen,
you understand this
always singing by the window.

I hold your songs
like a breeze holds flower petals
and summer
holds the smell of ripe fruit...

[Lucy the Dreamer]

[Tanner]

This speaks eloquently of simplicity and loveliness, found together!

[lunar glide]

I'm glad tanner! yes the simplicity of a good memory.

[RhymeLovingWriter]

Really lovely memory LG - captured in such poignant manner. It exudes a lovely sigh of grace, this one.

[lunar glide]

thanks RLW. appreciate it

[AlexandratheLate]

This is beautiful LG - makes me sigh at its beauty captured.

[lunar glide]

thanks Atl. happy for your visit.

[rhymetime]

My mind goes in multiple directions as I read and reread your verse. "for technical reasons" hmm.
Thanks for these flights of thought

[lunar glide]

thank you RT! different directions is right. it's a memory of my mother, her love of cooking me breakfast, and the feeling she is everywhere nowadays, especially with the birds at breakfast.

[rhymetime]

It is interesting to me that you mentioned the birds. One of my first thoughts, as I read this, was about birds just outside the morning window singing a morning song as we begin our day. I know that is corny and very snow white but I thought of that. I suspect your mom is everywhere, give her a wink and thank her for the support

[Bobby Del Boy]

Light and airy, over easy and perfectly unscrambled LG!

[lunar glide]

thank you Bobby! I've been thinking of you wishing a speedy recovery

[grant hayes]

I like the gentle wit and truth of 'for technical reasons', and the opening line 'You sing me stairways' is truly lovely. The whole piece, as I would expect from you, charms, lulls, and awakens all at once; the last stanza is as exquisite as a calligraphic stroke and as durable as fired clay.

[lunar glide]

thank you Grant! to be durable is perhaps the ultimate test... I've missed your work recently. must catch up.

[Tony Grannell]

Hello lunar glide, Moseying into the beautiful aromas and sounds of memories in endearing and tender poetry. It is truly lovely in all, one to linger in, in bliss. Regards, Tony.

[lunar glide]

[N. Y. Sonnet]

Lunarglide, you have made magic once again! Your piece captures the music of memories... So touching!

[lunar glide]

I'm glad you liked it NYsonnet. thank you!

[DWAYNE]

Lunar, this is a brilliantly reminiscent piece.

The whole thing!

I love the imagery and wit of the first stanza, and that last paragraph is eloquently vivid, expressive and creative.

[lunar glide]

thank you Dwayne! your compliments mean alot to me.

[Suz-zen]
