A non-contest poem.
In the snowy winter, there shines a crimson spark,
A beautiful cardinal perches, looking hardy and bright,
Its songs resonate through forest stark,
A beacon in the frosted white,
Its warmth defies the bitterness in hazy daylight.
The branches sag with icy weight,
Yet sitting on it, cardinal sings its tune without fear,
A melody defying future and fate,
A whispered hope for all to hear,
Its courage blooming year to year.
