Oak Coin
What do you think of my short poem “Abandoned Nest”?

I saw her nest by frozen bay
Upon an oak which laid below
One canopy of winter gray
And countless coins of opal snow.

The coiled twigs were tightly spun
And fastened stiff with frozen muck
Like leaves that once were there, it hung
Upon the oak tree’s powdered tusk.

Though winter sun had sent away
The bird that sewed its April nest
December, in its dead array-
Amplified what life was left.
Thanks Oliva, I’ll think those lines over.
“muck” sounds clumsy and kills the sound.
Like leaves that once were there is just meh.
Thanks for drawing attention to this!

that was si good! i loved how the line then the 3 line rhymed. and the 2 and 4 line rhymed. very good organization! theselines
And fastened stiff with frozen muck
Like leaves that once were there, it hung

its a little too, well, i dont know. but i didnt rlly like those 2 lines. but besides those i rlllly liked it!
