The Folding Fan
One foot here and the other there
Celestial light shines down
on the folding fan
channeling the wind from North to East,
to South, and lastly West
Cherry blossom petals slowly rain
and scarlet petals of dying flowers
join the westward winds
Another step here and another there
This folding fan will guide the way
on the path of faith, patience, wisdom, humility, and elegance
in this sacred dance
