My favorite Poems featuring Swans

 In case you were all searching for evidence that imagery and diction can be as/more beautiful as/than bodily form:

"Leda, After the Swan" by Carl Phillips
"Leda and the Swan" by W.B. Yeats
"Hope is a Thing With Feathers" by Emily Dickinson
"Sympathy" by Paul Laurence Dunbar
"Half of Life" by Friedrich Hölderlin
"The Black Swan" by James Merrill
