By My Window

Sitting here
by my window
I watch people going by
...
girls in petticoats
boys is trousers
women with parasol
men with top hats
they all go by my window
and I watch them
...
baby girls in pink
baby boys in blue
old ladies with bonnets
old gentlemen with suspenders
they all go by my window
and I watch them
...
They all rush by
ignorant of me
I don't know them
and they don't know me
but still I watch them
as they hurry on with their lives
...
Then one stops
a young girl with a rag doll under her arm
she waves to me
I wave back
then she runs away
back to her friends
and I keep on watching
...
Sitting here
watching people going on with their lives
by my window
