Heart of a Cardinal

Charmed by a Valentine Cardinal on February 14, 2025. 

The Sun is Bright with Passionate Light... 

Looking for His Mate with dusty Rose Breasts 

A Quest to be blessed beyond the Nests where Spring will 

bring chirping fledglings ready to fly through Orchards of 

Peaches and Green Apples   

Embracing the Romance...

'Heart of a Cardinal'
The gracious and tender ways of this song bird in beautiful red feathers is honored by your words. Creatures such as your sweet visitor do a lot to bring a happy and blessed heart to those who watch them. They are so interesting in their flight pattern and ways. Looking for food flitting branch to branch and caring for the nestlings that come. I could just imagine what you described. Lovely work.

This is such a beautifully romantic and vivid piece! The imagery of the Valentine cardinal, the warm light, and the hopeful spring atmosphere is stunning. Your writing feels gentle, poetic, and full of charm truly lovely work!

Always so sublime, Pat. I am too far west for Cardinals but a girl can dream:)

Indeed, not all cardinals are celibates.

A special Valentine with a Cardinal landing on your feeder with its bright red coat...revealing to you that he is king of the roost watching over "fledglings that flutter about an orchard of fruit " and ultimately return to the nest...on this special day....lovely
Warmly, B

Patricia,
They are among my favorite birds, and they mate for life. Many years ago, we lived in a two story house with two bedrooms upstairs and one down. I guess because we were young, we moved our sleeping quarters from one room to another every few months. One time, we were awakened by a tap tap tap at the window, and when we looked, there was cardinal waking us up. He did that every day unrill we moved across the hall, and we could still hear him over there, but then, the next thing you know, there he was at our new location... followed us down stairs, too. It wasn't his reflection in the glass like we thought at first... he just liked his peeping Tom role.
