Senbazuru

What happened to Miss Sadako when
A paradox occurred within grave?
Six hundred forty four cranes made in Zen
From her hands, wishing for a cure to save
Her child’s frame from “Atom Bomb Disease.”
Three hundred fifty six paper cranes short
They laid her body under willow trees
With one thousand cranes, every size and sort,
Her friends making the final 3-5-6.
What happened then to Miss Sadako’s soul,
Driven by her paper cranes and sickness?
Was she flown on wings to the river Styx,
Entourage of one thousand, or patrol
Peers, thinking “If I…” always in distress?
