An apprentice of swallows Date: Thursday, 1st August 2002 @ 09:38:13 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: allain Thus it has been said swallows come back in spring To seek new loves and fill their hearts unburnt desires.. I hear them in the tree’s chirping in Sonata’s. I love to listen to their love melodies As they leap from twig to branch Inside me my heart leaps too when I remember you. Because you see I need your smile, voice, and touch. I need you wordlessly like earth, water, air, and fire I need the clarity and transparency of your eyes I need the spring symphony you bring out from within me For this reason I follow the esoteric teachings of swallows I find myself a disciple among them. An apprentice of their love songs The fire to find myself in your favor my beloved! Close your eyes my love and listen to me. Be silent and wait for the wind to carry my song Change your course my love. Love me! Love me as spring awaits swallows.
