We have lots of cardinals here in our yard. One that begins his morning at 5 :) It was always my aunt's favorite bird Painted 1 for a Xmas card. I love Haiku. Your sweet poem has motivated me to try and write one.

Thank You for reading and for writing. It is a honor to have a win. I am glad you like my "Cardinals." Give a Haiku a try. I find they take some extra time. Let me know when you have one up, I would love to read it. Have a great/blessed day.................

Thanks for your note. Glad you love this write. One bird is a bright red and one is a dark reddish brown. I had them before I moved. I miss them. I would feed and talk to them. They are a beautiful and a peaceful bird. Try looking them up on the web. Have a blessed day....................
