143 <br /> <br />For every Bird a Nest— <br />Wherefore in timid quest <br />Some little Wren goes seeking round— <br /> <br />Wherefore when boughs are free— <br />Households in every tree— <br />Pilgrim be found? <br /> <br />Perhaps a home too high— <br />Ah Aristocracy! <br />The little Wren desires— <br /> <br />Perhaps of twig so fine— <br />Of twine e'en superfine, <br />Her pride aspires— <br /> <br />The Lark is not ashamed <br />To build upon the ground <br />Her modest house— <br /> <br />Yet who of all the throng <br />Dancing around the sun <br />Does so rejoice?<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/for-every-bird-a-nest/
