Simple Primitives done in the tradition of old
Nothing says
Simplicity like a bird's nest for your primitive home. I
placed a hand-made bird's nest (it looks as if it were real) in a jar with a poem tucked
down inside. The little eggs are made of clay and look so
real. A heavy piece of cotton muslin covers the top with
stained twine wrapped around. This would look beautiful
sitting on your cupboard or on a window ledge or anywhere in your
home, to remind us to be more like the little bird, and cast our
cares on God and let Him do our thinking. The poem which is
made on heavily stained paper reads:
The Bird Nest
The little bird has
chosen his shelter.
Above it are the stars and the deep
heaven of worlds. Yet he is rocking himself
to sleep without caring for tomorrows
lodging. Calming clinging to his little twig,
And leaving God to think for him.
