Juliet's balcony of dreams

It’s the stuff of love stories


A box on a façade…
With a door of a particular hue
Leading to an altogether different view.


Decorated by age and adorned with a tangled trail of vines
This little escape hints at sweet nights of adoration


Sitting somewhere above the world below
And just beneath the eaves and stars


It’s a retreat from the world inside
A sanctuary among the clouds


Where you can kiss the wind
And sing with the swallows.


Like a geckos glued to a wall
Awkward and lilliputian in size


Juliet's balconies boast a time of dreams
...of love lost 
...and love found.

  3. I too love to picture windows and balconies .. They're like ways into hidden worlds, or eyes opened on the world, according to which side you are. The 1st one here has such a beautiful and unusual color!
