White paper flower

A White paper flower for your paper crane

one drawn from the ground the other raised to the sky

Brighter than the snow 

Liighter than the air 

Hope floats 

As hope grows 

Message from beyond 

The crane and the flower still exist 

In memory and thought 

But most of all ieternally in spirit.

Pictures in the windows 

A nod from the stars 

Paper flowers smile up

At paper cranes

The Grave's Edge

 

I walk, smiling, to the edge

wishing for a long stroll

instead I get this. I meander,

and ponder, and look

over my shoulder. The past

is sneering, tearing up

old photographs taken 

with a Kodak.

.

I grin, solicitously, at the edge

approaching, as if it had my legs

and I it's fall. Welcome or repellant

is determined by the number

of steps boldly and hale-taken.

Hale pace 

Reminds me of a song : 

Hale Lyrics

"The Day You Said Goodnight"

Take me as you are
Push me off the road
The sadness, I need this time to be with you
I'm freezing in the sun
I'm burning in the rain
The silence, I'm screaming calling out your name

And I do reside in your heat
Put out the fire with me and find
Yeah you'll lose the side of your circles
That's what I'll do if we say goodbye

To be is all I gotta be
And all that I see
And all that I need this time
To me the life you gave me
The day you said goodnight

The calmness in your face
That I see through the night
The warm though your light is pressing unto us
You didn't ask me why
I never would have known
Oblivion is falling down

And I do reside in your heat
Put out the fire with me and find
Yeah you'll lose the side of your circles
That's what I'll do if we say goodbye

To be is all I gotta be
And all that I see
And all that I need this time
To me the life you gave me
The day you said goodnight

If you could only know me like your prayers at night
Then everything between you and me will be alright

To be is all I gotta be
And all that I see
And all that I need this time
To me the life you gave me
The day you said goodnight

She's already taken
She's already taken
She's already taken me
She's already taken
She's already taken me

The day you said goodnight
