Shame was heavy. Neck curved like a swan The reflection in the water was like a perfect sky. But it could not find the strength to swim against the current that inexorably dragged it on Caught in a cascading veil of violent churn, it went over the edge, tumbled down, and crashed upon the rocks Completely broken, Its feathers floated up lit up like a thousand lights until they joined the sun.
