Making paper boats

To set sail down the stream

A tiny fleet to carry weighty cargo

Each boat with fragile paper sails

Each carries a memory, a pain

Baggage that weighs down the soul

Embarking on a voyage to nowhere special

To just sail away, away

And leave the heart light, the soul cleansed

Free of the past

Stand on your feet

Back straight and eyes clear

Face the dawn, the hopeful day

One thought on “Paper Boats
