Finally!

by Elaine P

The swan, it has been said,

speaks only at the moment

of her death.

What does she say? I wonder.

When my moment comes,

I hope I will have

nothing left to say.

  1. Swans are mean.

    They will bite you.


  2. Ummm...nice? =]

  3. I have chills... I have never given the Swan much thought... I think I should more often... they are such beautiful animals. And so is your poem. I found it to be profound even though it was short... just going to show that even in the smallest things great wisdom and poetry can be found... thank you...

  4. Yes, I do like Swans, and your poem is interesting. I too hope

    by then I have nothing left to say.

    Once a lonely Swan, swam upon a lake for a short time, among Canadian geese, I enjoyed watching the Swan the few

    days it took rest there. and wondered if it had lost, it's one time life time mate. Perhaps, at death it is a Swan's love song.

  5. Girl swan's don't trumpet?

  6. Swans are decent and mediocre Whatever happened to panda's?

  7. Yes, they are beautiful...........what they say is  a mystery.
