A beautiful basket of sticks and twigs

A gorgeous rhythm of smalls and bigs

Sewn together with a web of white

Not too worried about what’s coming in the dead of night.

Once the sky’s all gone dark and moon’s ablaze

The air falls silent and light decays

An angry sky covers the land

Like a black wolf that’s in command

A thick blanket of fear and gloom

All you can hear is BOOM BOOM BOOM!

 

A wind picks up, nest can’t withstand

A strong fierce gust is in demand

The nest begins to rock and the eggs start to shake

The nest falls down and the eggs will break

That lovely nest that took days to make

It will hit the ground and two future lives it will take

The eggs hit the ground with a sound so distinct

There goes two lives. All gone. Extinct.
