    AN AMBITIOUS KITE

    One windy site,

    Two kites are extremely excited for their first flight.

    With a diamond body and an elongated tail.

    Each boy holds their own kite.

    Boys climb on a mountain top,

    They throw the kite and release the string.

    The two kites joyfully wiggle their tails.

    Boys ran as fast as they can.

    Higher ,  higher they uttered!

    Up up the azure sky,

    The two kites  are dancing from up high.

    From east to west,

    North to south,

    Up and down,

    They sway and sway

    Let the wind lead their way.

    I noticed, one kite

    that fly higher than the other kite.

    It glides,

    It wobbles,

    Until it hits an electric wire.

    The boy holding it shouted in dismay.

    For  he can no longer play,

    While the other boy,

    Still   guiding his one humble  kite.

    Jammaekas, This brings me back to my youth. I don't know how many kites I lost to electrical wires, quite a few...anyway. Youth ... much like the kite is carefree. Thanks for bringing me along for the journey and the memories. A very nice write and read. Ken

    Thank you for your comment again:) This poem is about my 2 younger brothers when they were just a boy...
