Window Shopping



My eyes see many,
My desire craves a lot,
My fanctacy consumes
And absorbs many more "spam"
But I am no empire with greed


My pocket lies with limit,
My emotion relish has room for few
So I window shop for lust
I see all I desire and admire
From a distance, with sight
God gave me eyes for a reason


For not all I want and desire 
Can I have, do I  really want
Even when I can afford
That is what makes me 
Cherish the little I have
It is that  which be-gets value


For the rest, I appreciate
I have the luxury
Of window shopping 
Spend just enough time
To own with my eyes


Some I will acquire 
In later time to come
Some I will always 
Just window shop for
With a respectful distance


But for the little I have 
I value the most
My eyes and I 
Will always have 
Just enough time surfing
With window shopping
My resolved mind will know best

  1. Your pocket and mine are about the same. Still, it's fun to window-shop.

  2. I'm with you about window shopping. Fun to look sometimes when one has time just to see what is 'out there', but not necessary to buy! Thanks for visiting Poetry Jam!
