The Knight flies a Kite This knight flies a kite of wit It soars within the clouds on high With a favor attached to it That often dips a plunge in sigh It all depends on wind and shifts It slides the slightest touch of hand With wile and smile to give it lifts It drifts above a promised land It is an emblem and a force Collecting dew before it fall To try to bribe a heavens course Illusions view to weave a shawl He winds it in with fervent dare His heart is anchored to the thread With tender love and tender care It is the women in his head It be a phantom he would reel Within a fantasy of zeal |

written in the style of a sonnet perhaps, although in relation to a kite, in the topic. This is a fast and moving piece and very well balanced out. I would not like to say too fast, if on the quickness of the flow. Yet overall moving is certainly the word that comes to mind. a poet who cares |

He winds it in with fervent dare His heart is anchored to the thread With tender love and tender care It is the women in his head It be a phantom he would reel Within a fantasy of zeal and you be the phantom of poetry wonderful read and write |

"He winds it in with fervent dare His heart is anchored to the thread With tender love and tender care It is the women in his head" Oh, now that's pure magic. Beautiful Sy. |
