This Is the Egg #50preciouswords

THIS IS THE EGG

This is the egg

found under a hen

warm and soft,

heated and tucked

safe in a cozy bed.

It’s so hard to wait,

the time drags on.

When is it ready?

Is it time yet?

And – pop – cheep!

This is the egg,

all done.

I live with my husband and crazy kitty. Much of my time is spent writing, reading, and playing with the grands. You can usually find me sipping tea or coffee, nibbling on dark chocolate, and contemplating what to plant next in the garden. If not those pursuits, then I am probably trying to figure out how to cook and live in an RV, creating cards with rubber stamps, walking, hiking, or out snapping photos with my camera.
