ORIGAMI

Last night, after dealing with my earache for days

I got paper out and conquered

my fear

of

making a wrong fold.

Forgive my sloppy first attempt.

The quiet meditation of the folds drew me in

and now

I understand how the moments, as you fold

allow you to reflect,

love,

breathe.

Today I shall buy origami papers

and make my

second crane.

***

love you,

me
