neat brown seaside house
in a smart row of them
but this one has
a window
that is not centered
it is to the left
and no doctor can fix it
palm trees are long
swaying over green benches
a hush that says you
the sky is gray
but later the sun
will get through
waking men and women
of industry and promotion
gentle shiny cars
will nose out of garages
streets where
random thoughts
drive gentle shiny cars

nice words and even nicer imagery; precise and impressionistic
I find it is hard to write about ordinary things, things I see every day. I am trying to do this more.
