Beauty, standing still
Watching and observing all
What does the Crane see
Crane sees and knows all
Even whispers on the wind
A beautiful dance
Knowledge and Wisdom
Like a leaf upon the wind
Silence, an echo
Ages pass, Crane stands
Now becomes then, memories
The future comes soon
Danger in the night
Destruction and death for all
Nothing left behind
Crane takes flight, flashing
Rustle of wings, fluttering
Emptiness...nothing
