Harbingers of feast
Or famine
Inhabitants
Of all
But the Antarctic ice,
These carriers of fire
From the gods to land,
Teach city folk
And country dwellers
That one can make a home,
Find plenty,
All around.

Thank you! In Native American Tradition, Swallows were said to have carried fire from the gods to land, which singed their tails … and is why they have a notched tail. 🙂
