A Paper Swan

[Author’s Note : Well, I just saw the picture and I just thought about this… thats all.]

A paper swan
flies away
flies far, high and wide
with its little wings
strives away
as long as it can , it flies

the fire on its tail burns away
it burn slowly the fire in its heart

The paper flutters with joy and how it flies
how the paper sputters and chides the wind

The wind will flame the fire
and the fire will spread about

But the swan flies along and slowly burns
happily with content

for, for a purpose
it burns
as we all must
slowly but surely
