“Looking out a window from different vantage points changes what you see …” Martha Ronk
An open window is a painting of
many and ever changing facets,
an eye to view the world immediate
through light and seasons,
and yet, if we dare to look
beyond the beyond,
to see through that
which we’d rather dream,
we might even catch a glimpse
of our deepest,
most vulnerable,
selves.

Yes! And yet for me, there is something to be said for looking through a closed window, safely behind glass.
