A Kite's Joy

The reason for the kite to fly happily in the sky, is not because it's free.
It's because there's a string that will eventually tug it close.
Even if it could fly freely, no matter how high it flies...even if it could reach outer space, it wouldn't be happy.
Beyond the string is a place to go home to.
Even if it gets tattered and torn or becomes useless, there is a gentle hand that will hold it close.
That's why I can fly.For that, I would live the rest of my life as a useless creature.
