The Swan

By mysticventures


The Swan swam silently southward

serenely

solemnly

searching

sedulously

In hope that

somewhere

someplace

someday

sorrow

Will fade with the call of a distant love

    you know Lylani - I must admit the 'form' of this piece was left to cosmic chance - though I'll be the first to admit it worked wonderfully :)

    I find the form of this very seductive, And the write itself simplistic beauty, very well done

    Yes the form, accidental or not. Turn your head on the side and it resembles a swan in flight. I also hear voices LOL. The simplicity adds so much more for the reader to ponder on. Well captured.

    y'know... i just got done "chatting" with you on the chatterbox and although i've decided rather quickly that i don't much like you i do have to say that your poetry is pretty good. i like the simplicity with which you deliver more complicated raw ideas.

    I can relate to this Swan. It seems this is just what one must do, flow south where it is warmer sometimes,and persevere simply to hear the one missed very much. Beautiful piece this is.
