If I Were a Swan

If I were a swan I'd laugh all day
at crowds who gawk in wonder
and never see beneath my glide
my feet are treading under.
I'd let them applaud my elegance,
my movements marked with grace,
while under the surface no one saw
the way I set my pace.
If I were a swan I'd wow the crowds
with movement smooth and sweeping,
and never let on to anyone
the secret I've been keeping.
