For Mr Kites Benefit

Look at me, I am a kite Clasp me firmly, but not too tight My rainbow trail flickers among the light Patterns of colour soar, swirling so bright Amidst the howls of childish delight. Air on a G-string is making me jive The grace I hold as I flutter and dive A timeless freedom, in which I thrive This fraction of eternity, where I have arrived Cherished memories, the joys of being alive. I move in grand circles and long sweeping arcs Blazing so radiantly, i'm throwing off sparks This topsy turvy journey my soul embarks Wth an amazing insight it then remarks... ...'Live with Light and Love, then the fun really starts!' From up so high, the view melts my senses Freedom to roam, no need for fences To see so clearly with no pretences No thoughts for profit neither expenses When conscious winds blow, the journey of your life commences. ©John-Ovan.P.Hull Many thanks to all the avid soupers for their kind comments, encouragement and inspriration, lest not the wackier of the contests sponsors, some ideas are titilating....
