Kites and Fun

The kites fly high, flapping colors
As if they want to reach the clouds
In blue water, emotion stirs
Children run with glee and yell loud

Kites soar like birds on a string
Higher and higher in the sky
Fun in the park, happy to sing
There are no worries, no wonders why

The simple things can bring this joy
Colors in the wind, free to see
Happiness, playing with the toys
An ocean park, sweet memory
