Above all

this green

leaf-laden lushness

in that tree

I see

from where first

those double notes

burst.

The cardinal sings.

Red-suited

crowned

he a-warbling rings out

then double notes

again.

I am his

only audience

down here

lonely for the taking

ground bound

listening for

love’s call.

I cry aloud, again

please, again!

He does so miraculously

then such a wonder-

ful life proclaim

rejoicing.

I stand below

and know

God too hears.
