flakes falling
suddenly thick over a heavy red cardinal.
other birds fly low over rooftops
through bare bushes.
the cardinal finds shelter in a near tree.
snow lightens, i'm writing
as the birds flutter by.
when now snow is heavy again
birds get out of sight.
i see deep in the thick branches of a of green giant arborvitae
the cardinal sits tucked in
waiting out the winter fury.
Thuga.
