cardinals all

a poem by Gwevera Nightingale

glamour taught the way to blend

each fell tear, a hope to end
gowns of reddest red, in deeds
the wind itself became their steeds
forth towards before, each severance
love itself would make no sense
songbirds worked and flew too quick
memory, it failed to click
mating seasons, come then gone
losing lovers each Spring's dawn
in songs themselves, their unique knacks
damaged chords churned life to blacks
crows were cowards — jays drew jeers
cardinals all, were all her peers
