5/19/2007 - Origami Secret


I found a neat poem today on this site I go to from time to time and post, it goes like this-

Origami Secret



Birds in Spring don't smell
like lilacs.

Their shells crack
when I whisper "I love you" wrong.

Their throne is delicate and their wings
like paper origami.

Their sense of urgency
is the Mulatta fiending freedom's secret.

Yes their wings: origami secrets.

And though I amble, deliciously poeting;
paper & pen of borrowed-cap fame,

mine own camera capturing the thievery
of their caged-bird essence,

I refuse to whisper their song.
And I refuse to whistle their song.

Yay! That I know the
caged-bird in his ultimate and unending beauty.

He is only I, and I: an origami secret.

It is very cold here today in NC. It got down to about 30 last night. I hope the
hummingbirds don't fly away from here cause it's so cold. It is kinda weird weather
for May. I have to go back to work this coming Monday. I have been laid off
for two months. I do dread going back cause I have been off so long. My husband
is going to have to get him another car. I think it's the transmission.
Lord's willing we can find him something really quick.
The Lord always provides a way. Looks like today is going to be a pretty
day.
