My Windowsill Poem by Jasmin Alice Read

My Windowsill



The glowing sun slides down
Its light does slowly fade
A hush falls across the town
As the sky turns deepest grey
A thousand more thoughts my mind uses for prey
And not for a second will they sit still
The only time they might all day
When I'm sat at my windowsill

I stare out into the dark night
Shining starlight drips on me
Debating my morals I put wrong against right
To change them or to leave them be
The stars, they burn, for as far as the eye can see
Changing my own morals, a spiritual thrill
These thoughts that occur are rather funny
When I'm sat at my windowsill

The blaring sun, I watch it rise
I haven't slept at all
Despite my thoughts I'm no more wise
Than when I started this all
Tomorrow night, once again, I'll answer the moons call
I only have more time to kill
Right on the edge, I hope I won't fall
When I'm sat at my windowsill

My joy is gone, I must attempt to find
A time I was perfectly still
Back through the years I cast my mind
When I sat at my windowsill

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I don't know why, but we seem to think of the sun rising and setting as happening really fast, but it doesn't. The moon stays the same longest, but there are thousands of different colours in every second of the sun and stars.
