Looking through the window 

There’s no surprise

Looking in the mirror

There’s still happiness in your eyes


You’ve fallen down

You can only go up from here

Don’t be afraid

Have no fear


If you ever forget

And you start to regret, remember


This won’t be forever

It shouldn’t last a long time

If you always remember

What’s on the other side


The author's comments:

I came up with the first part and the title while looking through a window, believe it or not.  When writing poetry, I want to write something that could not only help or inspire me, but others as well.  Evergreen is a source of comfort to me, so I hope it is to others too.
