THE NEST KEEPER

Springtime
and the birds in the yard
have been busy building nests

With all this activity going on
I've seen a few
Nest Keepers
Tiny colorful fairies
that perch on the edge of the nest
and watch over the eggs
while the Mother bird is away

dressed in sparkle
and colors of Spring


patiently
waiting for the Mother's return

One of a Kind Fairy
now in my
Happy Mothers Day
I'm off to the Windy City
to visit my Mother-bird
