We fought a wills grief, but your push prevailed, Nest over my door; guests will share another gate. Don't chide as other birds, you flew and wailed, My heart won't allow me to destroy this template. Nest over my door; guests will share another gate, Where ever you fly, your nest is hither. Winner! My heart won't allow me to destroy this template, Your idea to nest near fills me with a glimmer. Where ever you fly, your nest is hither. Winner! As your folk grows, it will spur me of my children, Your idea to nest near fills me with a glimmer, You and your pal can secure food in a swift run. As your folk grows, it will spur me of my children, They're keen to fly once you well fulfill their need, You and your pal can secure food in a swift run, I recall, the joy and pain of eyeing my kids stampede. They're keen to fly once you well fulfill their need, They'll test their wings and spot if they're sturdy, I recall, the joy and pain of eyeing my kids stampede, Without noting your loss, they'll flee and be wordy. They'll test their wings and spot if they're sturdy, Don't chide as other birds, you flew and wailed, Without noting your loss, they'll flee and be wordy, We fought a wills grief, but your push prevailed.

Dear Lasaad, I adore the endearing spirit of your exquisite pantoum. I especially loved this line; "Your idea to nest near fills me with a glimmer." -- so beautiful. In the final end, the empty bird's nest reminds one of their empty nest after one's children have flown. Splendid poetry. Congratulations for your excellent win in Chantelle's contest. Warmest wishes, my friend.. ~Susan

Wow, love the photo and the poem.... ! I can so well relate ! Once there was a potted palm in our sit out. A bulbul came and made a nest on it. So we could see from close quarters the fledglings growing up and finally taking on wings. This continued for three years until a wild cat came and ate the birdies. You are lucky to watch this beautiful scene, every day. Enjoyed so much. Wish you all the Best !

Creative way to go with this pantoum. I enjoyed reading this one. Good to compare your children leaving the nest to the bird fledgling. It is like the morgue when they all leave home but sometimes then they start coming back. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

What a cute breath taking Pantoum you have created and crafted . So adorable are these birds with their unborn children - these parents have their work cut out for them until their fledglings take flight and leave them with an empty nest syndrome. hugs, blessings, Jennifer

Hello Lassad, birds build nests wherever they feel like it. Calling it home. last year a Robin built a nest in a hanging plant. Enjoy your day my friend.
