Swans crowd the lake
  scattering their white feathers
     like lost love songs;

like my love song,
     lost upon the
              downstream drift.

Thank you very much for welcoming me to PoetrySoup.com. I appreciate your warm and kind words. It is true that this poem of mine, "Image", is somewhat sad and melancholy, but not all of my poems are like this! As a matter of fact, I write alot of poems with optimistic endings!...The title was originally conceived in French,(for sound and flow), but it is also OK in English. The French and English words are spelled the same!
