Valentine’s Song Easily shattered Fragile as a dove’s white wings Yet trust, forthcoming For such is hope’s slender limb Holding to such faith as this Life, so delicate Yet resounds in reddest breast With such a sweet song Turn away not, harbingers Return to faith on spring’s wind Such is winter’s last folly Fulsome play of heart Giving take of sprites Playing the season so well Giving spring thus its heart beat Easily shattered, Even Red’s fragility Stood the coldest test To see him as Valentine For he sings to one true love  " It matters not this distance now " Excerpt, Yesterday's Love |

Karilea~ This is wonderful ... and that Cardinal is just the perfect Valentine birdie~ Reminding me that I took some of the Cardinal, just last week, way up high in my Palm Tree~ LOVE THIS ... Happy Valentine's Day~  *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

I remembered either Liz or Nan telling me that this bird mates only once for life. I think we could learn a lot from that bird, and this poem as well. Happy Valentine's Day to you too.  |

This is one of the most beautifully written works I have seen for many years. I really like your style as it is seldom found these days. You are one a particularly special genre of poet. May this sunshine continue to warm hearts everywhere......as your poem did for me. Thank you so much! |

You just don't see her in her nest, Ed. Truly, they do mate for life. Shortly after I posted this yesterday, I could hear him outside my window, singing quite loudly. I think Valentine was quite pleased...  |
