Kite Poem

Once upon a time there was a little kite without a string.
Untethered she was caught up by every passing breeze, and met more than her fair share of kite eating trees.
Her creator helped her get untangled and patched her up, and though he knew there was a better way
He decided to wait until she got tired of blowing off course and asked her Creator for help.
Meanwhile there lived a string, on the ground, flat and straight, he got very bored.
The string did his very best to grow long and stay straight and to be a Very Useful String,
but he was still on the ground, bored and not accomplishing as much as he could.
His creator knew this and knew how much the string would like the view from above, but decided to wait until the string asked to fly.
One day the kite, decided enough was enough and grounded herself until she had permission to fly from her Creator.
Around the same time the string decided he was ready to fly, and asked his creator for help.
So the Creator saw the time was right, and joined the two together.
At first it was hard, the kite was restricted in her movements and the string was stretched further than he thought possible, but as time went on they adjusted and learned to love it.
The kite was glad to be safe from the kite eating trees and flying with purpose, following the wind as her creator intended her to, and the string was amazed by the beautiful and exciting possibilities he saw.
Both of them are so grateful to their Creator for joining them and directing them through life with purpose and joy.
