Knocked Down Nest

The nest
lays 
exposed,
bare,
vulnerable,
in the 
tangle of roots
at the base
of the tree
like a toupee
blown off
a bald man's head.

      Thanks, Becky! It's what I thought of when I saw a fallen nest on my run yesterday. Interesting what comes to you in ordinary moments. =)

    Very funny and somehow sad comparison.
