She Built a Nest, To Give Her a Place of Rest

artwork by Catrin Welz-Stein

She built a nest within her head

in hopes to hatch new dreams

creating a kingdom, a fortress

keeping her safe, until her knight

finds  his way to her....

She built a nest within her head

in the palm of her hand a songbird

under dazzling starlight, songs

echo through whispering trees

sonnets of love filling misty air

She built a nest within her head

dancing under golden moonlight

on feather light feet, embracing

distant melodies, poetic verses

spilling from her heart

She built a nest within her head

dreaming of romantic courtship

in a garden of roses, a troubadour

gently strums a seductive tapestry

of sound...

She built a nest within her head

woven with love twig by twig

held together with earthly soil

an intricate design to weather

the storms of her mind...

She built a nest within her head

in hopes to hatch new dreams

creating a kingdom, a fortress

a place for her to rest
a place for her to believe
