Christmas Cardinal

By The Golden Pen

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I saw a sweet cardinal chirp away; Singing an ancient Christmas Carol On a frosty Christmas Day; filling nature with its Canticle. Winter spread her white kerchief; The heavens lit Earth's path.. I saw a cardinal on Christmas Eve As I lay still like a good little lass; No choir ever sang so divinely Than this little Christmas Cardinal. Crusoe, Pavarotti or Boccelli To him can never hold a candle. Performing its Christmas symphony; It performed an encore on Christmas Day; Filling all with peace, joy and charity As the  Cardinal sang merrily away. Like a good lass I sat listening As the Christmas cardinal began to sing. Written December 13th, 2001 © on Dec 13 2001 01:42 PM PST, Mary Aris   nature • christmas
