A Million Cranes
By May Kwek
Fold
me a million cranes
A
thousand is not enough
To
get by in this crazy world
So
unpredictable and rough
For
it winds and it bends
In
shadows and in mists
Nothing
clear, nothing certain
But
that it exists
So yes
fold me a thousand cranes
And
then a thousand times more
For
with so many living wings
I’m
sure no one could fall
For
their wings could bear up a dream
And
spark a perennial hope
And with
stubborn dreams despite anguish
And
with faith we can cope
And
find a way to go on
Despite
the trials of life
The
dark moments, the silence
The
conflicts and the strife
So
yes fold me a million cranes
And
give them wings to fly
Up
to the heavens to shine as stars
Against
the world’s night sky
And
there let them fly forever
Yes,
forever and a day
Until
our faith is strong enough
To
bring us the rest of the way
