What can you see?
Roof tiles and chimneys,With pots short and tall,
From my bedroom window,
I can see them all.
Trees of green,
And many of brown,
A gap in the row,
Where one was blown down.
Satellite dishes,
Aerials galore,
A half open window,
A half open door.
Passing traffic,
A cyclist rides by,
A man at the bus stop,
Waving goodbye.
The bus nearly empty,
“Masks must be worn,”
A funeral procession,
Someone to mourn.
Hills in the distance,
Wales over there,
The Severn between us,
Mist in the air.
The Postie in shorts,
Braving the cold,
People out walking,
Both young and old.
A leaf on a branch,
Refusing to fall,
From my bedroom window,
I can see them all.

I found myself doing a Julie Andrews and 'singing' the words it to the tune of "My favourite things".
I've always liked rhyming couplets so I thought I would give it a go.
