@Dakota: I haven’t done a poem in some time, but I’ve recently came up with one now. Name of poem: A Wandering Cardinal.
A cardinal flew the woodlands,
Red and beloved and dear
While the children threw hands
Into the air, straining to hear
The bird’s song, glidin’ the lands,
Eyes scanning it quite clear.
With the weather crisp in snowy air,
The tree’s bark a brownish gray,
The waters frozen like mirrors,
The blue, blue sky sent a ray
Down on the cardinal in the air
As it flew the snowy day.
Surrounded in pale, pale snow,
With a large nest in the tree,
The cardinal all red, bowed
His kingly red crest in glee,
And hopped to the air, now,
Wanderin’ the snowy woodlands.
