empty nest
i’m a blue robin egg
in an used, empty nest
still waiting hatch.
those grown up birds
already fell, they flew far,
and left me in an used, empty nest.
and i try to think
if i had three eggs,
would i keep the one that never changed.
see my babies grow, and keep the last
in an used, empty nest.
would i still love an egg
that never hatches.
that never flies, but never crashes.
would i love an egg enough
to leave it in an used, empty nest.
