Notes About The Poem

The Kite POTD

I must fly a kite
and lift it ever so high
And load all my cares on it.

The wind suddenly
Veers direction and down comes
My kite bringing back my cares.

Dear Victor.... bury your cares in the soil and place a stone too over it, so that they will never come up again. Enjoyed this metaphoric write. As long as we are alive, there will be cares and botherations, also joys and excitements. See them as part of life. This is all we can do. Congratulations on your POTD, dear friend.

Dear Victor, with the wind being unpredictable at tines, this happens more than it should. Place your load of cares on paper and bury it, that way; they're out of sight and out of mind. Congratulations my dear friend, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Oh my! Sounds like a Charlie Brown moment. He often was tangled up in all his troubles in the form of a kite. Hugs and congrats on POTD. Hope your day is brighter today, my frien!

I used to love watching people fly their kites on the beach. Guess we've all had that wish at some time or other, wishing our worries would ride away on the wind. Well,you got POTD dear Victor ,so that kite did brighten your day. Congratulations and hugs

Dear victor, this is so beautiful and deep and creates imagery in such a way that gets readers too would wish their cares and worries would fly away and be carried away like the kite in the wind that youv used here in your poem. If only we can just do what youv said especially in your opening, congratulations on potd, well deserved
