Ode to the balcony
You've got a place to hang.
Or barbecue or share a drink.
It's in the open air but it's
Ever so privately yours. To
Enjoy quiet and friendship.
The snazzy is a real balcony
But we remember the peace
Of the fire escape as well.
Step out and grab a beer with
Pals and your honey. It's fresh
And cool out here, with a
Different perspective than
You get sitting on your sofa.
We had a balcony, both together and separately. I know we enjoyed that little bit of outdoors. And each of us had a porch at one time; in a suburban or country setting, that’s being close to nature yet ..not. Neither of us ever had a fire escape so seeing folks use one as an extension of their living space stirs some envy. It looks to be freeing!
