Paper Cranes
Danny Schmidt

Remember the days when our feet led the way

When a kiss was the cost of our slowness

And the circles we'd run were like laces undone

To be young and get caught once again


Remember the time long before the design

When the ink was as wet as the ocean

And we'd dance in the tide til the ink would subside

And our feet would print poems on sand


Remember the years when the days disappeared

Like the pages torn free from the ledger

Though the fury of hands met the day's chief demands

It was story so full, now it’s empty



When was the line that we crossed and we signed

When we promised ourselves we could make it

Now we lie in the yard and plant seeds in our scars

And await the next rain that might wake us


Now remember the years when the days disappeared

Like the pages torn free from the ledger

And off they would fly, paper cranes in the sky

Til the moon was obscured by our treasures

Now the moon is obscured by our treasures
