Last Year's Nest

Please don’t cut down that tree
You can see that it’s intact
That’s last year’s nest
But I know that she’ll come back
She flies away every season 
I miss her when she’s gone
She migrates in the winter 
Finding food to feed on
She’ll be back in the spring
To recover her nest
She’ll start from the beginning
With some brand new guests
I know that she'll be back 
And her nest she will seek
She’ll carry food for her young 
In her tiny little beak
Please don’t cut down that tree
That’s last year’s nest
She’ll be back in the spring
That is where she'll find rest
