At the Window
By Lauren Felstead / Spinebreakers Crew
Blinking eyes,
Breath unsightly,
I tremble in
My warm nightie
At the window,
A bright light,
Comes crashing through
This dark night
I stare in wonder,
Disbelief,
As it glows,
I grit my teeth
Is it nerves,
Or a vision?
Or maybe
Too much television?
All I know,
One thing’s certain,
Next time round,
I’ll close the curtain.
