The window on my left side

as I sit facing the west

while the sun rises behind me…

watching the colors and textures ..

There is something about the light rays that come down from behind as the sun rises

Something in the way they reflect on the colors and textures around me

the way they caress the leaves of the trees outside the window

the leaves changing colours as fall sets in

but nonetheless reminding me of the coconut leaves whispering to me

as I sat at another window to my left side

facing westward
