Sunset Kite Flying

The dusk gale hides
Still, the kite glides

Sun flares rest on leaves of a tree
Awakening calm at twilight
As horizons grasp the last light
Shadows cling to the children's glee

Awakening calm at twilight
The stars skinny-dip in the sea
And the west-bound sun forms to flee
As horizons grasp the last light

The dusk gale hides
Awakening calm at twilight
A kindled sunset comes to be
As horizons grasp the last light
Still, the kite glides

Still, the kite glides
The dusk gale hides
