The Swan

Description

The Swan (Behind the song)

Swans are beautiful creatures. They are mentioned only twice in the Bible as creatures that the Israelites could not eat. Good idea, it would be a pity to kill those lovely creatures. In literature and art Swans are associated with the gracefulness . beauty. Elegance and purity  of a woman. Loyalty for life is also associated with the swan. The song “The Swan” refers to the one I have loved all my life, she is like a swan in all those ways mentioned.
