Out My Window

This is the view out my window - the window of my bedroom at home, when I was growing up. And now it is where we stay when visiting. I woke this morning and looked out to see the early morning sunlight on this familiar scene. The street that goes off in the distance is Seaside Avenue, and it is the route I walked along to grammar school every day. It is the street that goes to the beach, which I rode with my bicycle. It is the street on which I returned to the house after my early morning paper route. I remember watching bright stars twinkle in the sky over the years, and I watched the moon arc across the sky from here. It was good to be back home.
