When each bird flies softly by,
waving goodbye to the moody blue, sailing serenely
to a greener dreamland,
and leaving me but a pile of lonesome clouds,
how I wish
to be able to cut off the line
that's tied to my kite!

One day
when finally I am free
from the hand that holds the line of my fate,
I wonder whether I'll be flying freely
like a bird or falling
like a free-flying kite from the top
of the world!

A really great poem as far as the imaginative idea behind it is concerned - I just found the opening 2 lines a little sickly (too many internal -y rhymes that thankfully disappear once it gets going)

Thanks, Skia, for your lovely feedback!
But when it comes to being lovely,
my scribbling is second to your lovely bud!

I wonder too. Ang, you really know how to express such deep thoughts in the simplest and loveliest way.
