Something to Look Forward To
At this time of the year, when I look outside my window, all I see is darkness. Winter Time. As the days move forward, we are now gaining more daylight and that is something to look forward to. More light.
The view from my window, are balconies of the next low-rise apartment complex. From the distance, I can see the Rogers Twin Tower at Metro Town. A third high-rise building is slowly rising. I can see the construction crane.
For most time, when I look outside, I look below. Right in front of me is a Holly Tree.
The Holly tree was a giant wiry mess then. The owner wanted to cut it down. I beg to the Manager not to cut it down for there are so many birds and animals that take refuge on this tree. Thank goodness, the tree was spared. The bottom part was cleared, now we can see the trunk and stand underneath. The tree top was trimmed, now I can see who lives behind the tree.
I love this tree. The Hummingbirds made it their humble abode. They own it now. Underneath the tree, I cultivated the earth and turned it into a garden. I named it, “Holy Garden.” Why Holy, it’s a long story.
As for now, I left the Christmas trimmings on it. See what I mean?
This is in response to Daily Prompt: Window. Come and join us, it’s fun.

Hi Ms. Strawberry. The hummers give me and the neighbours so much pleasure. We, as tenants, are working on saving the trees in our complex.
