A chirpy little in the nest

Inspired by a Friend's daughter :)

The hay is laid with efforts of days, the nest is in place
Ma and pa both rest and nest their hopes everyday
The warmth of a mother on the egg laid is most warm
The first crack, chirp is unmatchable, it smiles to world
That smile and the heart sink is a diamond that sparkles
The beak to feed, the feathers to cover the cold is only one,
The feathers grow, the flocks in the nest flow, and smiles go wider
The lessons to touch the sky, the lessons to feed thy way linger around
The little feathers flatter themselves and the beak touches the grains
And then a flight paves a freedom to build another nest.
The nest again nests with four feet and no egg,
Ma and pa recall the days when the beaks fed the hungry kid
The rain came and went, the winter came and went
They shed their age like an autumn wave across
But the still smile over the hatched egg like a blossoming spring.
That’s what we call love, its love in the nest and our lives.
One nest from another, one life to another we move across
