A real advantage
sitting
at the window
sill
and
observing

The humming
bird
who thinks
no one
knows
she ever
rests

The priest
who
occasionally
dances
for no apparent
reason

The wind
that talks
to
the leaves
and asks them
“really
shiver
so God is impressed!”

I see it
day in
and night out

Yet
no one at
the super
market
seems
much
interested

When I sit
outside
so
too
does
a dog

For whom
the window
sill
is a favorite
spot
as
well

We go
inside
to
try to
make
sure
we miss
not a thing
out
there

Later
we
compare
notes
before
continuing our
several
hundred
volume
history
chronicling
the
unique
goings
on
right
there
right there
outside
the
window

We see
everything
at
some
point

even
outer space

or
at least
a
tee shirt
a child
is wearing
on which
you
can see
the
universe

It’s more amazing
than
you
realize

And it 
even
changes
on
occasion
