Love Poem: From My Window

From My Window

From my window 
The sky and the earth
Hang the crazy bubbles! 

From my window 
The day and the night 
Always rise late! 

From my window 
The wind and the rain 
Like to lift the green Lady! 

From my window 
The cries and the hey 
Surf on the screaming skips! 

From my window 
The neighbour's huge ass 
Hangs all over the place!
For dancing on Friday night 

From my window
A little pierrot comes to say hello
When the weather is fine!
And sleeps with me sometimes

From my window 
Two lovebirds tear off their wings 
And devour the remains of their love!
Saturday night dance of death 

From my window 
The bluesy voice of my neighbour merrily blends 
With the laughing clicks!
Of a beautiful salsa girl 

From my window
The ice cream truck goes by
Even on rainy days!
Persistent music clicks

So bring your strawberry under my window 
We'll eat ice cream while listening to the rain and the sun 
From my window!
