My Christmas Tree

Christina8

My tree has my beloved male cardinals

they really are quite great

the only problem is that

you can't go buy his green mate

 

I wrote a poem called "cardinals"

and some have asked to see my tree

I hope this close up shows best

what far away you cannot see

 

To those of you who were waiting

I appreciate your patience with me

As Christmas draws near, I'm almost done

Completing all the things that need to be

              I got a cardinal bird on a chirping clock thing here in the UK! Not the same as in the USA I know. Good write and pic Christina.

                          Thanks GF! I really appreciate the compliments. It's not that often, but sometimes I'll look out and see one in the snow. They are beautiful birds!
