Red Kite Joy

don`t go back to sleep
this too shall pass
cooped kids slide the lock on
light through curtains sneak
eyes reach through the glass
bonnie birds spiral high
time to teach swallows how to fly

take the banner dad binned
says blowing in the wind
borrow string from our tent
break sticks from the fence
girls and boys
red kite joy

the waving granny`s on her bench
she`s lived through worse
you see a lot from a distance
nature takes revenge
deer eat from her purse
silence is like a new law
she misses those kids next door

banging pots and pans
guitars made from oil cans
walks behind their garden
hopes the racket`s starting
girls and boys
junk band noise
girls and boys
red kite joy

don`t go back to sleep
