Under the Swallows' Nest

J.P. Iglesias


Under the swallows' nest

we laid down to rest,

and watched the Sun wester

and heard the birds' vesper,

with fingers intertwined

and eyes enshrined

in each other's gaze,

as the birds sang praise

to the day hallowed

by a breeze roused

from the world's truth-yester:

    rebirth in Easter.

All as we came to rest,

under the swallows' nest.
