Over By The Bridge


Over by the bridge watch them link
Swans congregating before flight 
Curtains of dusk drape at the brink 
Over by the bridge 

The ebon sky soon out of sight 
as the red sun begins to sink 
the chill of autumn fills the night 

Gliding force, unabashed blinks 
huddled they aim for evening light 
as they swim together in sync 
over by the bridge
