What To Do About STARING OUT THE WINDOW AND WONDERING WHY

July 18, 2008 By Tim Mallon

The day it rained only over my house,

I stared out the window and was wondering why.

I crept back under the covers and listened.

The incessant pounding filled my ears.

The gray light seduced my senses to sleep,

I felt tranquil, placid, and a great peace.

Time seemed to stop to a stay.

Across the street the sun shined.

I stared out the window and was wondering why,

I heard the rain and yet kids did play.

A veil of gray around me remained,

apart from my house the sun smiled.

I thought to go, to leave, to venture for a while,

maybe the rain would stop, I stayed.

The drumming continued but was hiding,

I forgot it was there and lying.

Beyond the veil the sky was blue.

I stared out the window and was wondering why.

Beyond the veil the colors were true,

but could I be sure?  Was it a lie?

I thought to go, to leave, to venture for a while,

but I was fine, I was alive.

All of a sudden a ray broke through the veil.

The colors were true and the light was bright.

The sun smiled and called,

I stared out the window and was wondering why.

Will the rain stop? Will it stay?

The time was waning in the day.

The day it rained only over my house,

I paced, strained, and grabbed the door.

I ran and never looked back,

and I was happy, I was alive.

The day it rained only over my house,

I stared into the sky and was wondering why.

It just isn’t right! It is so confusing! Trying to differentiate between different spatulas can be quite the challenge. “Hand me a spatula, no, not that one, the scrapey one.” “Scrapey one?” “Yeah, the one that you use to scrape the sides of the bowl.” “Oh you mean the silicone one.” “What is silicone?” Why?…
