You counted 74 swans on the canal

And you were glad it was an even number

Everybody had another

No-one was facing this cold alone

Cold alone

They were gathered between bridges

in the steely sunshine

Here comes a pair on final approach

Wings like great white bellows

Gathering inward to land

and it looks like grace

Too eager to get where I'm going,

But you were on the last watch,

The passing of the torch

You counted 74 swans, now it's 75
