    There was a question about cardinal having three syllables, though I and the dictionary I used counted it as two..pronounced card-knal....but I took out the "of" so the syllable count in last line is now 6.

    seriously, you have captured such a beautiful moment in time, the most important rule of this form.

    Thanks, Andrea. It was hard not to put movement into the scene. I first used the cardinals eating seed...and thought..that's movement..so changed it up.
