The cardinal rule, A gift of love, A little red jewel, Straight from God above, The eyes in the sky, Flutter, flit, flap, Sweet beauty arise, Flutter, flit, flap, Red red, simple song, Keeping countless crawling along, Little black eyes and little orange feet, A simple chitter and a soft cheep cheep, The cardinal rule, Lovely scarlet rule, Wishing you good...

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...

No nearer nighttime. In my own arms I have nurtured the sweetest flagellation. Moth to inferno once more. Silver septum skin. She snaps from divine touch to sputtering projection. Roll credits where credit is due. Everything ends eventually. Her sanctified smile shines through tears, floods, inebriation. Just in time for happy unhappy hours. Where was wonder? I will delicately segment and untie her endless memory speck by speck. Until she...

Premiere V - Open Poetry Contest Rob Carmack The cardinal went where the other birds missed A robin, blue jay, and sparrow had their misses But aimlessly flew around the garden of roses Yet so oblivious to the creation of beauty in their path While this rose stretched her carriage to the sun The cardinal moved forth and introduced himself The door was...

Behind a fence were piles of leaves The trees had lately shed And as I passed, my eye picked up A flash of something red. I stopped and looked and out it popped, An unexpected sight – A cardinal, enrobed in red, Which filled me with delight. I don’t believe, as many do, This sighting signified A visit from the dead or that Good luck...

The dawn kept her promise and erased the dark.. A ruby red cardinal throbs his song of the heart.. A robin hops thru the grass eyeing twigs for it's nest. The mallards stopped eating, their breeding I guess. It's now apparent, a seasonal change in the air. The assurance of spring is every where....

During the early morning summer hours, A cardinal flew to the ground, and chose The most radiant of all the flowers— It had selected the enchanted rose. Taking flight, to deliver as a gift, This rose, to a woman, for her pleasure. Over many miles, the bird’s feet held...

In the stillness of a cool, spring morning, A cardinal’s heart is heavy – he’s heartbroken. Softly calling for the lover he is mourning. Thumps noisily against the clear glass pane, Reflecting the scarlet bird, lost in his grief, Striking the window, again and again – is he insane? ...

Bright red flash against the snow-filled trees, the cardinal comes to rest in a shower of white. He trembles on a limb, black eyes darting, searching for something to eat in the bleak landscape. Nearby, his mate waits patiently, unobtrusive in her somber browns. He flits, one branch to another, still for a minute. Then he takes wing, and the streak of red momentarily brightens the world...
