House building’s down to Starmer
the freeby King of Kings
Who could learn much
from our wild birds
whose pre tuned brains
exhibit purposeful things
twigs and leaves and bark and mud
and construction that looks fine
and is well conducive
to the rearing of their young
outside in the wind and rain
on crowded branches hung
trilling sounds be evident
songs from long before
beautiful construction
talented and raw
up against the elements
wild flowers will adorn
the nest eggs and the best eggs
when their offspring
yes are born.
