![]() the window ledge of beautyA Poem by Ama May Cooper![]() Its something i have a habit of doing when im thinking, sitting on my window ledge i mean![]() sitting on my window ledge the world unfolds beaneath me like a map on a table spreading its folded paper knowladge roads woven in 3D printed out beneath me for miles and miles it feels like i am floating high in the sky running my fingers along tree tops peering down chimmy pots just sitting here away from it all upon my window ledge people walk by , like ants so unaware of my presence walking without a map but with mentally injected directions aiming for a goal i can proberly see the church spire within my view the cockral blowing genlty on the wind planes soar above my head, following there track with my eyes watching them land wheels first , nose down and straighten i stay still , not moving for fear fo falling falling down into the hedges below tumbling broken and destroyed on the grass the grass where we used to play football not so long ago, feels longer still sitting here alone on my window ledge the world a beautiful mass of green trees towering with a confidence the land mass below seeming almost flat a tap of rain upon my nose a shower soon to fall when it comes ill duck inside safe from the drenching the others will run from for now i sit and watch as gently more rain drops stain the landscape light stealing clouds , grey and ominons inside soon the rain gets heavier, singing of the treetops drum beats on the pavement screams of those caught in its attack but i am safe, i pull away. inside , looking at no map pull the window shut until another day sitting alone in my room with my 3 purring cats. © 2009 Ama May CooperAuthor's Note
