Thank you all who follow my Substack. I do hope you have enjoyed my stories. I have been on a slight vacation so I can develop something new. I will place some poems on my site here for you too. I’m working on a book that I believe you will also like. My book is a story based on the prodigal son from a father’s point of view. I’m giving you my poem this week to prepare you for my book to begin the next week.
A Little Hatching
The casing is dark and only a shadow of light. She stretched and began to move with all of her might. One push let out a small foot then the other.
A little bit of shell remained like a hat on her head. Her feet eventually stood up as well.
She is now one of many letting out a chirp. Every bitty bird starts this way you can tell. How life can begin for a bird from a shell.
