Let’s Build a Nest – Written July 2020 (Aged 45)

Let’s Build a Nest

it is tiring
isn’t it?
let’s build a nest
and fly away somewhere
it’s funny, this life!
they make you president
of so much strife
let’s build a nest
and fly away
those daily visions
have too much to say
let’s build a nest
and fly away somewhere
i found branches
that do not sway
and roots that do undermine
such drab graves
let’s build a nest
it is tiring
to be constantly awake
it is expiring
to put on the brake
let’s build a nest
and fly away somewhere




James Garratt – July 2020
