twigs and straw

dragonfly thighs the size
of elephant eyes
wisdom as wise
as a sunrise
apple pies take the cake
with your life at steak
to break bread with you
inside your garden gate
and rule the day
as if it were our own
to call upon the energies
in wellness and in moan
is anybody home?
where heart and mind may rest
it happens that I long to be
with you forever blest
safe and warm newly born
in twigs and straw
inside our cozy nest.
