Natures Balance

Something magical aligned in the stars one night-
which birthed the love of the Cardinal and the Rose
A balance which propelled the universe to motion

The Rose, a beauty of sharpness
The Cardinal a mysterious blur

The Rose nurturing his faulty ambitions-
with dreams of caging his love 

The Cardinal cursed to fly away to greener trees–
feeding on her zealousness 

Bound by the wind and the rain and the sun
Faced with the need for the other

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
