Robin's Nest

Tully & Toril Collaboration "Four Good Eggs" 
Robin's Nest

Wedged high within a tree,
a swirl of twigs, grass and mud
temporarily holds the sky,
nurtured and nestled.

by Margaret Bednar, March 5, 2015

Spring brings many shades of blue sky - and a few storms.  My favorite spring sky is a robin's egg blue, with a few clouds, calm and pleasant.

This is for "Imaginary Garden with Real Toads - Artistic Interpretations - Art with Toril".  I am hosting this challenge and invite you to visit the other poets and see more images of Toril's beautiful art work.  Just click on the above link.

    I love the unexpected idea that a nest "temporarily holds the sky". That is very cool!

    Wonderful the nest holding the sky. That period of waiting high up there.. There is a beauty in that.

    Yes, I agree with Kerry, "holds the sky" is such a great line.
