What do you see?

George has been looking out the window this morning
confused
someone shoveled the deck yesterday
and now there is a snowbank
it's blocking the view of the bird feeders
and the road
and the man with the two fuzzy yellow dogs
who walk by at 7:55 each morning
he can't see the couple who always amble past
who pause and look through our window
curious, just like George
or the runner in her hot-pink jacket
who never looks anywhere
but at the road straight ahead
What he can see
are the bare branches waiting for their green gloves
and gray sky waiting to turn blue
he can see a power line
waiting for the crows to gather for their morning chat
and the pine tree
waiting for the sun to rise up over it
like magic

Monday Morning Warm-Up:

What do you see and not see out your window?
