Chicago, The City Of Dreams

12:37 a.m.

The bright hue from the buildings fill the little hotel room

I lay my head onto the windowsill watching random strangers roam below

White, sheer curtains billowing around my body, creating a frame

I rustle through my head for any idea for a piece of writing

I spent two hours in silence, gazing out a little hotel window

The only sound heard was a continous clicking pen and the occassional ambulance sirens

I finally wrote 2 pieces of writing

I set the pen down on top of the notebook and return my head to rest on the windowsill

I get chills realizing how beautiful this night has been

I'll always remember these city lights, this workspace of a windowsill and the way the breeze caught these curtains

That night was unexpected but definitley an eye opener.

Beautiful how well you write the love of the city so clearly and how you take in the little parts of life.
Very good! keep up the good work.

It's amazing how the beauty of the ordinariness of daily life can be appreciated by only those who take a pause to notice. Such pauses make beautiful poems. :x
