Blow the wind
Loft our kite
Look up and see
Our hands against the light
Climb the string
To catch the view
To bob and weave in
Gusty skies as falcons do
Hear the music
As the breeze
Vibrates the string
And softly starts to sing

Good write Lorna. Yes, we have the wind for it in the UK at present, but also the rain with it!
Yes - Neville mentioned kites yesterday and also that you have rain going and I am so wondering if kites fly in the rain - want to go out and try for me? It's dry here. But don't put a metal key on the string.
Ugh, no, it's horrid to be out in it, even wrapped up in raincoats!
Lorna,
Good morning.
We’re up nice and early.☀️
Love the song. I haven’t heard it in a long time. It complements your poem very nicely.
One particular word you penned that lofted me into a memory of long ago is ‘loft’. The first time I heard that word was on a golf course while watching a golf tournament...where I met my husband.

It's insomnia for me today. I'm glad it's a special word for you and took you back to beginnings....... isn't it funny how just one little thing will do that! It's memories like that that I am running on now!
A great one - made me smile.
Glenit is up there hanging on for dear life.........
There's a cartoon there somewhere.
I will die happy if once in my life I am someone's inspiration for a cartoon........... Willy an Joe still make me laugh.....
this is more than just a little Sunday whimsey .... this is the making of me
... this is my very own first Nevsey ... loopin the loop at the end of a string .......
tis more than smileworthy too ...
What's a Nevsey?
.................... Fansey you not knowin that .. I guess its like a onesey but spelt differently ... maybe 🙂
a sweet lullaby of summer
Glad you liked!
you`re welcome
Good words Lorna, I used to have kites to fly until fairly recently when I gave them to my great-nephew.
