Pages torn off the books of fairy tales,
of bridges built over waters,
of brides and bridegrooms,
and marriages hasty but ending happily ever after,
were what the paper boats made of.
And clouds drawn out of the doodles
with blades, carved over the school desktops,
seasons of rains and snowflake trailed behind.
So many were the trials and and so many endings happy and sad.
The paper boats went off sailing in rain
with the tales of the souls
who unfazed by the broken paths sought the waterways.
