POETRY / Alyce Guynn : Cardinal in Pyrocanthia

Cardinal, detail from quilt / Wolven CyberArts



Cardinal in Pyrocanthia

A wind chime plays softly
the melody of memory
soaked in winter sun

Bright the contrast
between then and now

like the cardinal
in my pyrocanthia bush

The breeze behind the music
is cold against
the warmth of winter sun
