through
the eyes of the open casement,
i
saw her flying all around
finding
nest for her new ones
or making mere amendment
carrying
love beneath her wings
unconscious
of future happening
she
worked from dawn till dim owl light
to
toss away all grudges and fright
but
who knows what mother nature shows
that
comes out its way bears blows
then
think of nest before it
a
house of twig, a hut of grit
and
there comes the rolling clouds
the
lightening flashes, the thundering showers
that
blew away the nest of grass
and
all the dream that birdie draws
it
leaves two things for the bird to mend
a
broken hut, a broken heart
it
challenged the winds of the sky
and
waited for a message to be sent
that
there it triumphs the devastation
with
its twigs of courage and renewation
and
flew along its way
saying
'after every night follows a shiny day'
