Marking the Days

I read about a mom and son Who chose to mark the days Since Covid struck by making cranes In most creative ways. One paper crane a day displayed And posted as amassed Allowed them to acknowledge The uncommon year that passed. I love a daily noting Of the march of Father Time, Whether origami-folded Or some pencilled words in rhyme.

I have tried origami; I am insanely clumsy and powerfully bad at it. I like this one though; especially the last line.

Staying creative certainly passes the time and keeps the mind healthy in these dark times. Tom
