Softly

Your dark meat, the limb and wing
Like flightless prey outstretched
Along with gravy soils spotting
Our nest
Our delicate home just forming
Twigs and nestles placed
End to end

Blankets of nervous chat
Memories of last nights
Avoidance, my wandering
Between keys Ctrl and Alt,
Then softly slept
Next in crown of nurture
To my friend
