Swan Couple


Floating on the emerald water
The swans mated with grace
Hoping to birth a darling daughter

They swam smiling, face to face 
As the rippling waves danced in joy
Adorning the lake as delicate lace

The fluttering leaves ceased to annoy
Their tiny white flowers showering a rain 
While the sparkling reeds grinned in coy 

The air of excitement was hard to contain 
When the swans waltzed in dizzy
The magic of Nature was impossible to explain

Notes:
The painting is by Mrs. Ratna Pochiraju
The poem is written in Terza Rima style with the rhyme scheme ABA BCB CDC DED
