Swans

Mythical eyes 

of the sun 

as drifting 

swans in fiery 

yellow orb 

silhouette.

Suffered year

nearly over

what else can

happen now?

Have we not

learned to

never ask

that question?

The sun burns

as bright on

the other side

of night when

shadows cloak

the best secrets

lost to memory's

darkened sky 

dusk horizon.
