Birds Swim

Birds swim in soapy lily water
Against the currents of time
Fish fly on citrus scented air
Watching centuries pass them by

Very Nice poem Alisha, Thank you very much for reading my poems i appreciate it and enjoyed all your comments. If i could pay you a compliment it would be you are very perceptive because my english needs a lot of refining and i think i am old fashioned , History intruges me much more than the future , Cheers keep writing and reading , Chris
