Bird House Blues
A birdhouse attracts the beautiful and divine.
Who offers the soul both a charm and a chime.
Blessing hearts with palette and song.
Along come the rippers and nibblers.
Gleaners of peace they're born to be.
Leaving the heart to a hobbled dream.
In skies of robin's-egg quiet.
Now blistering in twisting silence.
Battling the harshest of seasons.
Amidst winter acorns and peace thieves.
Birdhouses filled with dead and dying things.
