If you were the last of your kind
What song would you sing
And who would you sing it for?
Would you sing a song of memory
Or of regret or of past kindnesses
From and to those that you loved?
And would there be unkind notes
About your desolation and solitude
Or a last blast singing against fate?
Or would it just be a kind of sweet swansong?
Or would it just be a kind of sweet swansong? - The Dying Swan by Camille Saint-Saëns -beautiful poem
