As you venture through life’s wonders,
Its dangers and delights,
Hold tight onto your dreams,
And run with all your might.
For like a kite,
Release those fearless hopes into the sky,
To roam and dance through the carefree wind,
Yet, steadily guided by sunset’s light.
Β Joining Trish over at My Little Drummer Boys for Wordless Wednesday.

Thanks, Tracey! It was a fun and memorable afternoon π
Penny says
Your boys are doing better than Miss Possum and I. It took a LONNNG time to finally get it into the sky. Did you write that? It’s beautiful Gracie.

It took a couple of attempts to get it right but we eventually got there.
And yup! That was a self-written poem π
kirri says
Is that your poem? Awesomesauce…not as beautiful as your boys though.
PS – I do hope no one was harmed in the making of this kite-flying adventure?

It sure is my attempt at poetry π
No, no one was hurt. There was perhaps one crabby by-stander π
Ai Sakura says
Beautiful photos and the poem goes along so well with it…

Thanks! It’s actually a photo of each of the boys π They’re identical so I don’t blame you for thinking it was the one kid π
Kelly @ HT&T says
Beautiful. I’m hopeless at kite flying, I guess I just never get the right kind of wind π

mamagrace71 says
It took us a couple of attempts and one disgruntled by-stander (one of the kites got wrapped around her…eeks!) but we got the hang of it in the end π
