Can't help you, I'm afraid. My searches turned up next to nothing. The only sleeping swan I found in a poem was Shelley's:

My soul is an enchanted boat,
Which, like a sleeping swan, doth float
Upon the silver waves of thy sweet singing


The only scattering stars and dust I found were Rumi's: "We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust"

As you didn't ask for anyone's opinion of the poem, I won't offer one beyond what I've said.
