SWALLOWS

The swallows in their formal dress
Are sitting out this dance I guess

In order on the power line
I don't belive they've come to dine

Their chatter seems the idle persausion
The days now short for conversation

The sun is warm
No wind to show
Heading south priority low

Yet there is something in their conversation
That tells me they are leaving this northern nation
