Early Morning Song
Dawn broke early one late fall morning
A male cardinal bird came a calling
His chirps were so loud and excitable
His color was a blaze of fire
I could’t help but admire
He moved quickly from limb to limb
Where contuied to sing that sad hymn
I know he was longing for his mate
At that time I began to relate
His heart was unsettled
While he looked through the trees so thickly settled
The mate he loved had gone away
Making that his worse day
Bird’s mate for life
He could never take on a new wife
It’s a sad song we all sing at one time
But to watch him so furiously had to be unkind
Nature has its way of healing pain
So mourning, even for a bird is not in vain
