A Thousand Reasons: kite

"The sharp knife of a short life
I've had just enough time..."

- "If I Die Young" The Band Perry

I see Beauty in many things. And like the ghosts that only speak to you if you notice them, they tell me wondrous tales. With my camera and my thoughts, I captured these as faithfully as I can to share with you. And by doing so, they gave me the reasons. And though the thousand reasons may not all be sweet and some indeed bitter; they are still reasons to live. Come to think about it, that is Life, isn't it?

Nothing Sadder Than A Tangled Kite.

I've had just enough time to... go fly a kite! :)

Taken in Bali of the plight of a downed kite.

......

I am a kite

Born to fly, to

Soar above the land

An inhabitant of the sky

But the wind I depended on was fickle

And I learned that though I was born to fly

I was not a free inhabitant of the boundless sky

And the Earth that gave me birth
waited impatiently...

To reclaim

the one
who
fly

Let's Go Fly a Kite (from "Mary Poppins")

When you send it flying up there,

all at once your lighter than air!

You can dance on the breeze,

over 'ouses and trees!

With your fist 'olding tight,

to the string your kite!

Let's go fly a kite

Up to the highest height

Let's go fly a kite

And send it soaring

Up through the atmosphere

Up where the air is clear

Oh, let's go fly a kite!
