Ephrastic April, Day 5: "Swans"


"Swans" (dste unknown) by Susan Isabel Dacre [1844-1933].

a small bevy of swans

in a vast expanse
of water paddling
dabbling and honking

one watchful one
always at the ready

  1. A beautiful painting. My mother loved swans, birds, water foul. I was drawn in by bevy. I did not know one is always on lookout. I am drawn to swans because of my mother.
