Nestlings A Collection of Poems

A gentle collection of verses that celebrates the simple wonders of childhood, this book offers a tender glimpse into the affection a mother feels for her little ones. The poems range from the delicate observation of a baby’s first steps to the imaginative dialogue of two tiny seeds seeking purpose beneath the earth, each piece wrapped in the quiet reverence of everyday miracles. Accompanying the words are soft, pen‑and‑ink portraits of the author’s own friends’ children, lending the pages an intimate, scrapbook‑like quality.

The tone is both nurturing and reflective, inviting listeners to pause with the poet as she muses on love, growth, and the unseen guidance that steadies a child’s path. While rooted in the domestic world of homes and gardens, the verses reach toward larger questions of destiny and hope, making the collection a comforting companion for anyone who remembers the bright curiosity of early years.
