MY WINDOWS

Three windows in my House OF Life
Look out three different ways.
One turns with wistful longing
To the Road OF Yesterdays.
And watches how the shadows
or the poplars. slim and tall,
Point mutely at remembered days.
And silence over all
And one looks out with eager eyes
Upon the Street OF Now.
And sees the passers up and down,
And greets them with a bow
The little street is frankly gay,
With checkered shade and shine,
And busy, too. with 5usuinG Joys
That wait on me and mine
The other window turns away
From Yesterday and Now.
And not single backward glance
Its vision Will allow.
It's gaze leaps out TO hills afar;
Its clear eyes. purged from tears.
Up through the deathless pines can trace
The Path OF Coming Years
And sometimes when the sun Is down,
And ! am all alone.
The little windows beckon me,
For they are quite my own.
And seem 10 love me. every one.
At eacK stand and look.
And read their little stories
Like the chapters OF book.
The first one fills and thrills me through
with happiness, and PAIN
The neXt-l'm drenchcd with starlight.
And then I'm splashed with rain.
But the other window draws me,
And | smile through rainbowed tears
For | read happy ending
Down the Path OF Coming Years.
