Flower Poems

The Bent Flower
There once was a flower,
Who, at an untimely hour,
Began to crook to one side.
The poor little flower,
Would no longer tower,
In the field full of green grass and snow.
But from yonder came a man,
With nothing but a pan,
And sat by the badly bent flower.
And the man sat with the flower day and night,
Helping it get through its plight,
But came the following day.
That within an hour,
The man who sat with the flower,
Was gone like night during day. Tro Missaelian

On the last Monday in May we in the U.S.A. celebrate Memorial Day. On this day we pay our respects to the brave men and women who have lost their lives serving this country. In honor of the occasion we at Origami Weekly present a yellow ribbon. The yellow ribbon serves as a small token of our support for our troops, and our wishes for them to return home safely. God bless our troops and God bless America.
Diagrams here: Yellow Ribbon
Fold a ribbon and show your support!
See you next time!
--Jared
For our viewers from other countries: the yellow ribbon does represent a similar sentiment in many nations. Also, if made from a different color, the same style ribbon has come to represent awareness of many other things, such as pink for breast cancer, or red for AIDS. Feel free to fold a ribbon for your cause, whatever it may be.
