A Light in the Window by Lawrence Ingram

A Light in the Window

Frank was a middle aged man that spent  nearly all of his time alone ever since his wife had passed.

Day after day and year after year ,even at Christmas and thanksgiving.

Frank used to attend church too at one time, but something happened that caused him to lose his faith in people but he never had a meal or received a blessing without thanking the good lord for His mercy.

There are times when many of us sit alone thinking about the things that frank surely does, like the things we all long for or pray for after we’ve turned out the lights and sank into our lonely beds, everyone no matter who they are has the same kind of thoughts but their just differently patterned.

I was Frank’s neighbor and I often could see him sitting alone watching tv with his dog when I came in late after work at night

I couldn’t help but feel sorry for frank but I knew for certain that man was kind to everyone and I seen him talking to himself on special occasions, but I knew that he must be talking to his wife that wasn’t there or he was praying.

I hope that one day Frank finds his happiness and when I look through that light in the window I see him smiling and someone sitting beside him besides his dog and the shadow of a lonely man on the walls

Bless you frank
