Sleeping Swan
On this crisp sunny morning
a sleepy swan slowly wakes
enveloped in her white wings
protected from the cold night
an orange beak peeping through
this bird is an awesome sight
a black beady eye watching
so aware of life around
waiting for the time to swim
as she moves without a sound
raising its head to the sky
stretching her wings out wide
slipping into the waters
no more need to sleep and hide
Swans are graceful and very beautiful birds, pairing up for life elegantly swimming across the lakes.
