Near Or Far Poem by Patti Masterman

I look out through my window,
I'm looking for your eyes,
I want to hear your voice-
Instead hearing my own sighs-
I'll send a star to tell you;
My messenger he'll be,
To tell my loving stories
And how my dreams, you'll see.

I'm looking out my window,
And I see the Sun is bright;
He gives a lovely rainbow
And in your eyes makes light.
I see a moon in shadow,
Half in the dark of space-
Holding all the deepness
The same, as your night face.

I see all, through the windows-
How love is full of light,
That shares all of the details
That then are hid by night;
And waiting by the window,
I know that day will come,
And all the shade of night time
At dawn, will come undone.

So you see, I don't mind waiting
Like Earth waits for her Sun,
And don't worry then for darkness,
Or where the night comes from;
For someone must have loved us,
And set the stars on high
That go missing in the sunlight-
But at night, they must come nigh.

And the star-fields, they are plenty
Looking out my window view,
Counting stars at midnight,
While waiting here for you.
And soon I'll see a messenger;
Another falling star-
On his way to tell you
I'm waiting- near or far..
