The Sunroom

a stuffed black and white animal with
a red nose sits atop a well-used cat tree
in the corner of the sunroom, sheltered
from the rays of sunlight flooding the
room with warmth...  a wicker couch
covered in a protective blanket with
pare pillows stretches across the fall
wall for visitors that may soon arrive
but never do...  feet rests are available
for their pleasure just in case...  two
wicker rockers sit along the adjacent
wall on either side of a portable unit
that provide heat and cold when called
into action by pressing a button on top
of its casing - two hoses connect it to
the window for intake and outflow
purposes not fully understood...  a
comfortable cloth rocker sits in the
other corner that was purchased from
the previous owners provides a nice
addition to the room while offering
its occupants a variety of positions...
there is nothing impersonal about
this room other than its lack of use.
