A Kite Tale - Monotetra

A soaring kite was cut mid air;
a pine tree snared it in its hair.
The little girl thought 'twas not fair.
A bad affair! A bad affair!

Then it untangled, went its way,
to mount the sky on that bright day.
Sent greetings to a fat blue jay.
Oh, it was gay! Oh, it was gay!

Around the sky it swooped and soared,
explored a brooding, mystic fjord,
as all around it thunder roared.
It was ignored! It was ignored!

Then lightning hit the kite a-glance
and made it truly jump and dance,
around the heavens' great expanse.
Odd circumstance! Odd circumstance!
