Swan Song
Swan Song
All the animals about he cared,
Everyone had a face which looks beyond scared.
They encircle him; their tears start to pour
Over a succumbing swan who was once adored.
He lay on the ground; silence was spreading,
Sooner or later, he would stop breathing.
As his tears fell, it started to gleam.
How handsome he was! How magnificent he seemed!
God’s teardrops fell down as rain,
Even his true feelings cannot be restrained.
Mo
ther Nature broke into a storm,
Even she fell into despair and forlorn.
The swan’s death seems as if the world is dying,
As if everyone is hopeless and endlessly crying
The world’s peace is now at stake
Deceit will arise and tranquility shall abate.
The swan wanted to leave something behind
So if anyone misses him, of him it shall remind
Piercing yet melodic, he broke into a song
Then went off to heaven, where he truly belonged
