lifted by the breeze
as expected

Dear Robert, the straight-faced humor of your fine Senryu comes through in your last line. Life is wonderful when things go as expected. The lovely imagery in the first two lines sets up your last line perfectly. Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan

Somethings are just expected, and never fail to feel us thinking, “ as expected “ a very clever and deeply meaningful senryu: you have a way with painting imagery and conveying thoughts in few syllables in such eloquence . Pleasure reading this. Sending you light

This is a great write, dear Robert, the imagery of a flying kite and being lifted by the breeze, it's meaningful and delicate both, in its essence.. Crafted in a quite clever and intriguing way..
