I have opened the French windows.

(perhaps the French call them fenetres anglaises? with a circumflex)

At last I can breath.

Outside the gulls are excited, quiet now - perhaps they've gone down to check out the sea.  Now I can breathe, perhaps I will fall asleep again, dream of swoopy gull-flying over to France,

The land where the windows come from.

Better close them first, though,

The act of closure, the stuffyness, will wake me up.

Still.
