new paper on the table

scattered random sheets...

each a story waiting now

for the pen its life to complete....


more paper on the table

no pen to write in sight

so oragami takes control

and gives to each new life...


more paper on the table

the pile growing high....

a lil more clever folding...

and paper airplanes fly...


a child with the paper now

crayola crayons in her hands

rainbows birdies flying cows

become wondrous colored lands


no one page is better

than any other there...

yet each is made with thoughts and love

or at least a bit of care


and though in the end variety

is rampant and abounds

from a single pile came

all those creations all around


each of us is paper

waiting to be remade

let not one of us say who is best

lest none of us be saved...


so mind you thoughts and ways my dears

and when you are remade

rejoice that though..now different...

from a grand family you came.

" and I dream of her always,
even when I don't dream.
her name's on my tongue
and her blood's in my stream."

'Christmas in Prison' John Prine

Dear Adam,

You are so wise!

each of us is paper
waiting to be remade
let not one of us say who is best
lest none of us be saved...

very true indeed! I LOVE IT!

Love

*snuggles* You do have such a way with words.

Miss you terribly
