Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Harsh Reality

A young robin out of its nest

Is perched on a metal beam that

Provides slim protection at best

In a real hostile habitat.

No way to know what had occurred

To put this young robin in threat

Of soon becoming a dead bird

From a fate not happening yet.

A google of the robin states,

Of young, just twenty five percent

Do live beyond their first year dates.

This robin knows not to lament.

Odds are that though it's still alive,

This young robin will not survive.
