Cardinal sits alone Red against a white back drop Standing out from other birds Glowing bright red wings Flapping upward to the sky Sitting alone in a tree Cardinal where's your mate? Left in winter lost in snow alone to fend for your self Cardinal are you sad do yo feel true emmotions Cardinals feel love for ever Cardinals mate for life There's always flying in pairs They seem to love each other but its just nature do cardinals dream when they sleep If so I wonder what dreams Cardinals sleeping sound.
