Notes About The Poem

One In Five Poetry Contest Roundel

The Sunshine Band

The sunshine band, ember sunset.
Stunning swans' graceful elegance
Serenely swim, one can't forget.
The sunshine band

Overlay peace yet endlessness
Cast, swayed in the balmy breeze, yet
It displayed depth and eloquence;
The sunshine band

Loyalty to each other let
These white feathered benevolence
Dip their heads together, heart set.
The sunshine band

Valsa George July 15, 2025 at 12:13 AM I have watched such an arresting scene many a time. Love the expression- 'sunshine band'. They swim and dip their necks together as if a dance band performing together. Lovely poem.
