The Nest
Bark entwines the branches of-
tall eucalyptus tree
Nest was placed with much haste
Now propped so hauntingly
Baby bird has disappeared
Egg shells-left other pinch
Though tweeting can be heard close by
Perhaps a baby finch.
Amazing such a special home
Has captured me to pause
Inspired by the work made from
Little beak and claws.
Empty nest-such a shame
For crafted loving care,
A new beginning for the bird
Left inhabitance vain bare.
The bird is labelled brainless
I voice Intelligent
To nurture young to have them sprung
To bring sheer sentiment
The aves continue cycle
Freedom, love to nest
Astonished by the workbirdzip
Animals at best.
