Laowai

He went to the windows of those who slept,
And over each pane, like a fairy, crept;
Wherever he breathed, wherever he stepped,
By the light of the morn were seen
Most beautiful things; there were flowers and trees;
There were bevies of birds and swarms of bees;
There were cities with temples and towers; and these
All pictured in silvery sheen!

Oh these windows, oh this old house. It needs so much love. In the meantime we’ll try to enjoy the pretty patterns of frost.
