the kite

The flyaway kite was found stuck high up on the branch of a tree. Now I'm at a loss. I just stood there and stared at the kite. It felt so near, yet so far.

Should I risk the height to climb the tree to retrieve the kite from the branch? Or should I just gaze from afar and wait for the kite to drop by itself when the wind blows? Or should I just go away and find another kite? Tough decision, ain't it?

Do you really want the kite? Is it one of a kind, once in a life's time type? Sometimes, it is better to have tried flying the kite and see it soar up in the sky and lose it. Sometimes, you just can't fly the kite at all and then you know you have to chuck the kite.

Wow... that's so thought-provoking... well, I've sort of half chucked the kite in the bin. heart pain, but then i guess the kite fits well there.
