I just discovered the tiny words site. This site, and this poem–both beautiful–as someone else commented, I will look at their nests differently now. Which is, from a certain angle, the whole point of poetry. Thank you for sharing your work with the world.

Oh, I love this one! I’ll always think of it when I see their nests!

I really, really, like this, Greg. The pause at the end of line 2 is profound.

Nice touch, Greg, and liked the contrast of human & nature in reverse. Delicate & nuanced!
