Poem Artwork

Lo, the sanctity of life
Perched hungry on a sill
Ecclesiastically reddened
Our “belonging to” fills . . .

O’ eminence of the snow!
In vermilion and rose . . .
With flurry all surrounding
He’s stilled, claret and robed!

Dignified in beauty
Evergreen brier, brings. . .
The red-hatted bird
Under a guise, Cardinal's sing . . .

All good things to your tribe this new year.
The image is like a nice plump breast -

Reminds me of NY when I first saw a Red Cardinal. I had no idea such dick dicks exist. Every time we tried to take its picture the bloody thing knew and flew.

His Eminence the Cardinal Bird, makes me think of Richelieu and the Queen and the Musketeers and...you go me going girl!

My favorite songbird: the cardinal. :) Thank you for this, Kimmy, it's GORGEOUS, in image and verse: 'ecclesiastically reddened' is BRILLIANT in color and imagination! Well done!

I seem to be getting a sign- not hidden either- beautiful poems with photos-

Okay- thanks- I'm sure they thank you.
