a red cardinal

flies down on the silent grave - 

the time for closure

One bright splash of red
On the snow-covered holly--
A cardinal bloom.

bells ring on christmas

near white-frosted  evergreens . . .

a cardinal sings

dead red cardinal
swarmed by sugar ant workers....
cat's supper consumed  

Cardinal On The Bough
Flashing Crimson In The White
He Takes Flight In Fog

chickadee in tree
gaily busy with hatchlings~
insects shy away

like a feathered rose 
the male is most colorful 
black masked and robust 

an angel is near 
when a cardinal appears 
in your home or yard

small songbird cardinal
your bush cut down from the storm
small cardinal no more

red streaks on maple
sunrise taunts the wriggling worms
a cardinal preys



blueblack of ravens
irridescent folded capes
peeking at sunrise

It perches in tree
 gracing me with it's presence
 from heaven it's sent

cardinal on branch
bright red rests in snowy fir -

springtime cardinal
red against still bare branches
scarlet serenade

bare limbed althea
waiting for spring's call...
red cardinal flies  

Bright red cardinal,
colored life in gloomy cold,
hopping in the snow

North Carolina

cardinal beauty
'pon the low hanging willow...
amaryllis blooms 

weeping willow tree's
low limbs graced by cardinal..
amaryllis bud

red cardinal looks
with quizzical turn of head. 
reflection in ice

Red Cardinal sits
'pon willow feathers puffed out ..
sunlight filters through fog   

delight of jade spring
pink perfumed mass profusion
sunbathing bronzed blooms

cardinal sings loud 
from his perch next to blue sky
reverberations

floral flamboyance
drawing the world's attention
the fresh, lovely days

hungry chickadees
enjoy al fresco dining ~
seed feeder frenzy

from wind swept branches
cardinal sings of morning's rise
cicadas chime in

The Cardinal
By Franklin Price
5/30/2015

The cardinal dressed
In the reddest of feathers
Proud of his color

cardinal waking
soft light over horizon
morning’s early blush

soft scarlet flutters
in winter's pristine chilled air—
a cardinal calls

Snow covers softly
No movement except slow stream
Red flame cardinal

barren maple trees
display bright cardinal trills ~
scarlet serenade

Glazed, basted berries
Cardinal red, burning buds
Doused in morning dew.

male red cardinal
clings to tender spring green branch....
both blown by east wind 

the millet's stem bends
beneath the weight of cardinal...
seeds disappear fast 

stem now touches ground
bending from cardinal's weight..
cat in the shadows 

Scarlet form black beek
fluttering from tree to treet
Hello Cardinal

in bright scarlet robe
he flies across azure skies
bringing signs of life

a cardinal and
eight blue jays at the feeder ~
rowdy communion

May 10, 2020
for Brian Strand's  the 'HI-KU(2)' Poetry Contest

snow rain purple leaves
foam crested waves returning
black night coming down

cardinal landing
shooting star on twilight sky
blooms after summer

overripe berries
beautiful sunset goodbye
splashing waterfalls

avalanche starting
butterflies settling on blooms
weeping willow tears

soft snowflakes swirl down
wintry wind whirls through white trees
cool cardinal croons
