Swallow! Poem by Anahit Arustamyan

Swallow!

Rating: 4.8


SWALLOW!

Swallow, I am tiny but you are tinier than me.
You can fly over the largest seas.
I just flow in my blue ink.
Swallow! Aren't you my spirit?
You hide me in your white breast's silk.
What is a bird's life like in singing springs?
Is it easy for you to get straw and seeds?
I can't imagine it as I am unwinged.
You can knit a nest in the highest tree.
You can jump on the sky's knee.
Your roads are open and free.
No, you are even bigger than me.

Swallow!

some times poems make us to know, learn and understand, in some extent, how weak we can be comparing with a small creature like a swallow. Congratulations for being chosen as poem of the day.
