While on break at work, saw some kids flying kites...this poem came to mind. Enjoy.
Kites, attached to a string, soar into the Heavens; borne by uplifting winds and the prayers of youngsters, they live their dreams of flight if only on paper. Their imagination bound not to the Earth, but on the wings of hope that rise into azure skies.
At Tybee Island every year there is a kite flying contest. It sounds like your poem here. Kids with smiles for miles and colors darting all over the sky in boxes, circles, dragons....you name it and with a colorful tail ,it was there. Thanks for allowing me to remember this annual event.
