The Empty Bird's Nest

the empty bird’s nest
          fell neatly upon the ground
                   after life began

I find haiku to be difficult, you seem to have got the handle on it.

This is gorgeous! You have enlightened my morning by your tender words of wonderment my friend! I love birds too, but never get to see many more than sparrows, robins, and black birds (Oh and the occasional hawk)! I forgot, we do see cardinals too! I hear the owls, but never see them! Oh your write is very wondrous Heidi! You have delighted me by your soft words of merriment that I am enthralled by its splendor! What Great Work!!

Thank you Vijay. We were on the same wavelength. Your nice Haiku was like the perfect beginning to this one I had written. I appreciate your kind comment and prompt to put this one in. :)
