From a Willow, To a Swallow

From a Willow

To a Swallow

By Andry Chang


Oh, where?

Where did you go?

Here no more

Like wind, you came and gone


Your graceful wings

Oh, how I miss you

Your heavenly sings

Why can’t I keep you?


Are my branches

Too thin and brittle?

Are my leaves

Too few to shelter?


Falling you fear

You seek stronger branches

Cold you fear

You prefer bountiful leaves


Yet, I’ll survive

And I’ll be wiser

Grow stronger with time

From the loneliness I bear


If you again need me

Fly back to me to stay

For you I’ll be here

Until time fades away
