(Female European Cuckoos lay their eggs only in the nests of other species of birds. A cuckoo egg usually closely mimics the eggs of the host)
In my nest
I kept the eggs
of hopes and dreams,
close to my chest
and tended them all
blessed blind in patience
and long eggspectations!
Before their hatch
how could I know,
alas, I’ve sat upon
a few cuckoos’ eggs,
fulfilled the dreams
not mine, the hopes
of someone else.
