Swallows Poem by Phil Soar

There might be many swallows heading off to feed elsewhere
There may be many obstacles, as they fly together there
A few may never make it, but thousands will succeed
To rest awhile and live abroad, to re-fuel and then breed

There may be many flights like this, of many, many miles
Over land and over sea, in many different styles
Survival of the fittest, replenishing the few
Who make the return journey, to create that something new
