A Stick At a Time

a stick at a time
the birds build a tiny nest
a place to lay eggs.

I loved this! And it's true, your poem and Heidi's write are like two poems that are meant to be together...you should find a way to do just that, a collab! I really love birds, and we have sparrows and robins building nests all over the place here in the country, and the funny thing, they like to build them against the house, and there are trees everywhere! Oh well, we let them do that, even if we do have to clean up their poo! Great Work my friend!!

I was very lucky to watch a nest being built in a tree in our garden. How painstakingly and patiently it was built. Love was put in stick by stick. A truly wonderful haiku Vijay...Maria
