I want the window seat in life
In ev'ry plane I fly.
I want to watch the world below
And all that's passing by.
I want the windows without shade
In ev'ry room I rest
That I might see the world outside
And ev'ry bit ingest.
I want the windows open wide
That I may smell the breeze,
That I may hear the cooing dove,
My interest appease.
But as I throw the windows wide,
I find it is the case
My appetite is simply stirred -
There's more I must embrace.
Each slice of life says, 'Just one more' -
Like greatest tempting sweet.
I want the window seat in life
That I might taste the treat.

I enjoyed reading this uplifting write. The meter was good too. The speaker in this poem is a light person! Well done.
