Delicate this robins egg within the hands of a child Me So long ago I remember climbing that ancient tree Finding This so incredible fragile warmth Tiny in the palm of my hand A living shell holding blue promise As I set it back within its nest And waited days for its mothers return Not knowing then that she never would Because of my scent .... Again I hold an egg Fragile as a dream Love she has for me Its warmth of heaven bliss Scorching so very deep This shell of translucent blue So careful must I grasp Even in open hands Must I yet hold While my very soul weeps As silently I scream |
