Skysail
Let's fly a kite,
you and I.
Let's run out the string,
thread-like, but strong.
Lay out the ribboned rainbow tail,
straight and narrow,
a vivid streamer to chase the wind.
Cast out those painted silk sails,
let it catch the air and fly,
colours spiralling behind it.
Let's send our dreams into the sky
blow our wishes, like kisses,
and hope they land.
