Origami
origami
stillness pervaded
the ancient paper home
not even the rill that
dutifully crossed the small
garden dared to break the
meditative silence.
a controlled swish
of heavy white paper
whispered through the
open doors and rested
on the water lilies
folded like his paper creatures
the aged man sat unmoving
except for his waltzing fingers.
