Autumn is close at hand. On the beach Ripples, Polly and Jason meet Gegè, a poet swallow who charms Polly with his verses. Feeling jealous Ripples and Jason go away and try to compose their own poem. After asking Icarus for advice, they find the right inspiration under the sea and rush back to recite their verses to Polly and Gegè, but their poetic effort turns out to be rather awkward.
Gegè, however, does appreciate it; but then, seeing a flight of swallows migrating for the autumn, confesses to the three friends that he won’t be following them, because he is afraid of flying. His new friends offer to help him and take him up on a high cliff on which Jason slips and falls: Gegè overcomes his fear and throws himself into the void to save him. The poet bird has now got over his block, catches up with the flight of swallows and bids farewell to his new friends, who, rather sad to see him leave, cheer up with another of Jason’s hammy poems.
