Sifting

What noble little creatures they are  
tending to eggs through
starvation and storm
in colorful robes of the Gods.

We humans tend to smash our homes
with our wrecking ball souls
sift through the broken shells 
and tiny bones of tomorrow. 
Then we brand it... 
"our destiny".

Interesting! Picturing birds in colorful array. The contrast, instead of weathering the storm, we try to find our destiny in our broken lives.
