Away, away into the wind and far from here, careless innocence has sent a beloved pastime astray. Forever lost to the sky, the child gazes in both sorrow and awe as the kite aimlessly drifts away.

Amiss, the child is saddened by the loss of a dear friend. Alone, she looks around at what was the perfect day. A rosy spectacle and glamorous parade of blossoming orchids adorn the seashore amidst the calm ocean and gentle breeze of the quiet afternoon.

Hours from now as the kite sails peacefully through the heavens and the child walks home with a heavy heart, she contemplates the things that are dear to her and promises never to let go again.
