A Special Nest
By Kavita Singh
Winter is approaching.
A bird decides to build a nest.
She gathers little twigs
and builds her nest carefully.
After a lot of care and hard work,
the nest is ready.
It is warm and cozy.
The bird is happy.
She lies down and begins day-dreaming
of a comfortable winter.
As she is about to fall asleep,
she feels something shaking.
The bird thinks,
“Maybe the wind is shaking
the nest a little.”
But the nest shakes and trembles
and shakes some more.
The bird flies out of the nest.
The next moment,
the nest falls to the ground.
The bird sees an elephant
using the tree to scratch her back.
She is quite annoyed.
“This is so rude of you, elephant!”
she says to her angrily,
and flies away.
She begins to search for a new place.
A place where elephants
can't reach her.
She starts building a new nest.
With care and hard work,
she builds a home.
Tired, she falls asleep.
Just as she is about to close her eyes,
she sees two big, round eyes.
They are staring at her.
It's a painter.
He takes her nest and throws it away.
Then he picks up a brush
and starts painting the wall.
The bird is very annoyed.
“This is so rude of you, human!”
she says to him angrily
and flies away.
Her heart is heavy with worry.
As she flies,
she sees a balloon floating in the air.
And another!
She looks below and sees
lots and lots of balloons!
The bird looks at the balloons
and has an idea.
With care and hard work,
she builds a new nest.
This time, nobody can disturb her.
