the nest will not last

The humming bird's nest
Built it, done it and wait
The early morning rituals
No little bird comes to sit

The humming bird made mistakes
The bird nest constructed on weak leaves
When the nest was fully completed
The leaves withered the nest would not last

No bird in its sane mind
Will ever lay eggs in the nest
So now the nest sits empty
For a week the leaves withering away

It is like the ancient story
Don't build house on sand
The foundation is weak
It will collapse without warning
