Notes About The Poem

Swans Sailing

each day I take a walk in the park
and spend time  
with the white swans gliding
with such grace
on the flowing river
just watching
I could gaze at them forever
their beauty unfathomable and peaceful
what a gift they are
then . . . 
what a surprise to behold
a swan comes floating close 
with a baby on her back
I think she was showing me her little one
back and forth she paddles
fluffing up her wings then 
suddenly swans
come from the green reeds and wildflowers
paddling quickly in a circle dance  
baby swans come sailing . . .
