I'Ll Never Forget the Beautiful Swan

I'll Never Forget The Beautiful Swan

                              i'll always remember her as a swan 
                                          amongst ducks
                                     passing me in a pond
                                     as nights ripples buck

                              she be gliding the midnight hour
                                      amongst the minutes
                               sweeping past the overgrowth
                                  her mind having no limits

                                  as the moon shines down
                                       the stars so bright
                               her star growing effervescent
                                in the sublimity of the night

                                against the bank's silhouette
                              i see her, still, in moon shadows
                                just gliding, just gliding alone
                              in renunciation of norm and pose  

                               i can feel her melancholy heart
                                amongst life's pulse and beats
                              the absence of love from her flock
                              at the altar of her mind's mistreats

                               still, a natural beauty in my mind
                                 amongst the hush of night air
                                      her silence and solitude
                                 arcane muted cries and cares

                            the last of night touches the ripples
                            filtering light, peeking in, spawning
                           still a beautiful swan swims in circles
                    webbing below the surface to a new dawning
