I have something in my pocket
I want to show you.
I was thinking
about windows today.
That's why I was peeking
in the window when you came,
and so I just jotted down
a few words on this paper
and turned out to be a poem.
On the other side of the window,
there's so much you can see.
A girl, a boy,
a street, a toy,
a leaf,
and part of a tree.
On the other side of the window,
is another place to be.
What do you see
out of your window?
There are, oh,
so many things to see.
Sometimes, you see
people going away.
Sometimes, you see
people coming back.
Yeah.
Why don't we ask
Picture Picture
if it would show us some
pictures of people at windows?
Should we do that?
'Cause I like to think about
what you can see
through a window.
Picture Picture on the wall,
would you kindly show us all
what some people see
through their windows?
Oh, there's a mother
and a little boy
looking out their window.
I wonder what they're seeing.
Do you suppose they're
seeing somebody coming home?
It is.
It's the daddy coming home.
See him waving?
He says, "Hi. I'm back.
I'm back from work."
And there's a little
girl looking out.
She's looking out of a window.
Wonder what she's seeing.
And there's a boy
sitting on a window ledge,
and he's looking
down the street.
Maybe he's waiting
for somebody to come.
Do you think?
Did you ever sit
at a window seat
and wait for somebody
to come to your house?
I did, especially
when I was a little boy.
I used to like to sit
right in the window seat...
...one like this.
It wasn't this exact one,
but I used to like to sit,
and I'd look out of the window,
and I'd think,
"I wonder who might be
coming to visit today."
I think I'll just
look through this one
and see if there is anybody.
The neighborhood looks
pretty quiet right now.
Uh-huh.
Do you see anybody?
I guess it's kind of hard
for you to see through here.
Oh, wait a minute.
