Mom Sends Me Cardinals

I miss my mother quite often
so she sends me cardinals
they are bright red and fat

they bring a sense of hope and peace
reminding me that I did not lose my mother
she will live forever

the cardinals she sends bring me hope
I feel lucky, they manifest new ideas
they are powerful, their messages clear

and I miss my mother less.
