Notes About The Poem

Image result for swans flying

Feathers In Transit

While
plumes
flutter
in rhythm,
swans twirl a ballet
girdling  through agile quills aflight
and pivot in choreography of glazed moondance
till wings leave at  finale's point  when icy November appears on a graywashed stage.

Nette, if you had centered this one it would have a shape similar to the outstretched wings of the swans. I marvel at the agility of this large birds as they paddle dance across the pond for take off...

How you capture the free dance of swans in ballet form, then let them exit to migrate makes this poem exceptional! The last two lines are dramatic!
