New Nest
NEW NEST
Before sun awakes,
she decorates sky as first guest,
unlike huge house of bricks,
she encamps in niggling nest.
Before lily pop mouth out of petals,
like queen she twerks in all weathers,
unlike pricy vehicles,
she wallows in faithful feathers.
Before our breakfast flog from kitchen to table,
she chunk up snaps of food over miles,
unlike we hang heavy bags to children as morning gift,
she brings to kids a wisp of smiles.
Before bells of temples ring,
she tweet and sing on domes,
unlike drafting shorelines to religion and race,
cities to cities a bird roams.
After the world sleeps,
thanks to thee she chants in lay,
unlike going to bed with flaws of today and plans of tomorrow,
she prays another adventurous day.
when storm of wind whisks her nest away,
home she tailored by bits without rest,
unlike giving up,
she gets in making new nest.
