Black swans

Black Swans 
Gently swimming 
My heart 
Softly beating 
Water droplets 
Crystalline; sparkling 
Upon feathered backs 
My tears overflowing 
Slowly dropping
Memories overwhelming 
Sadness; pain
Their voices 
Softly calling 
Beaks seeking 
For some food 
I have nothing 
To give you 
But my sorrow 
This I show you 
Within this teardrop
All my pain
Gently slipping 
From wet lashes 
As memories 
Come back again
How could a mother 
Ever explain
How much she misses
Their gentle kisses 
Soft as summer rain
