KITE
MAKER
Boy
carves
slowly,
in
balsa.
He
knows the best wood
for
kites; light as a baby’s laugh.
Blond
head focuses on creating a half lap joint.
Butchers’
paper enfolds rigid, flush crossbars. Add a touch of paint. Wild eyes will show
the way.
Whip
up a tail of silken ribbon from sister’s plaits.
Knot
string in place, parachute-like!
Let
dreams become reality.
Run
into the wind,
laughingly,
as
it
soars
high.
