The Cardinal

Contributed by Eireannach on Thursday, 5th March 2009 @ 02:19:15 PM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems



Simple things precious
Not noticed before
A cardinal dancing
Outside her front door

Hopping and chirping
Sweet singing was heard
She longed to join in
But could not speak a word

Her eyes made plain
All she wanted to say
So seed was provided
Each start of the day

Freedom in common
Was something they shared
Could it be some how
That the little bird cared?

And passed on to her
All she wished to do
With bouncing and singing
He helped pull her through

One cool August morning
A last beautiful day
Like the cardinal so cherished
She too flew away

2009 G. O Raithbheartaigh

very profound, esp. at the end. i found this a bit sad at first, but then inspiring as i read. a moving, solemn piece of work. great job, take care...
