Swan and Betel Floating Race

Rabbit vs turtle, The old running race, Another race is on the cards- Swan vs betel, The floating race, Betel means winning leaf, Like the old rabbit in belief, The finishing point is nearing, Both Swan and betel in the hope of winning! (The presidential election in Sri Lanka is to be held on 08.01.2015 The symbols of the two main candidates,Swam and Betel leaf

OH...what an interesting poem. Thanks for that footnote that made the meaning clear. I wonder how it will go and who will win. My friend visited Sri Lanka and was enthralled by the beauty. Thanks for your visit to my work.
