I’m hunter, a predator, trying to capture
The wing of a cardinal on a camera screen.
But startled, it flutters, escaping the aperture
And flies away, - scarlet over emerald green.

Perhaps in a poem, if not on a photo, -
If not on a screen, the perhaps on a page, -
So strong is my passion to conquer and cage
The cardinal wing and birches in autumn…
