The Nest

THE NEST One does not invade another’s nest When so Lovingly placed The string and twig entwined in such seamless haste No need for basement nor sidewalks to No need for windows nor a door no purpose for a flue The down be it’s furniture The limb it’s only beam Would God’s intention be for us his most gentle scheme.

Hello Skat.. forgive me for being tardy in answering you. I rarely visit this site. Busy is just an excuse and the only one I have. ha I read a few of your poems and made my comfy chair more comfortable. Rather shy about sharing my poems. People have turned Love to larceny and it left me branchless. They did what they thought best. Not really familiar with this site and not sure if what I do is correct. Write me anytime. email is also manor1930bnb@aol.com
