My Little Kite
Oh my precious little kite
Ready now for our first flight.
Ready to soar up out of sight
Fly so high with all our might
You've all the string that I could bring
Soon you'll fly and I will sing
In the sky so high in spring
As with joy my heart will ring
With your tail so fine and long
In you I seem to find no wrong
Your frame of wood I made so strong
High in the sky you'll be erelong
A kite of wondrous colors mild
Sailing into yonder wild
I looked up as I smiled
How the joy upon me piled
See you dance so gracefully
Alive and being all you can be
Seeing things I'll never see
And sharing the moment's memory
Up so high in the springtime sun
Higher than birds, my little one
Farther up than I could run
Oh how well that you have done!
I watch you soar, you see me play
In the breezy springtime day
Forever here, I wish to stay
Never this time to pass away
I never knew you'd fly so high
Far up in the springtime sky
Me to you a string does tie
Upon which now we both rely
For the wonder that we share
Simply just could not be there
If for you I did not care
The string to slip I do not dare
You and I, we are a team
And the wind and sun do seem
To help us make a living dream
In the sky we rule supreme
