Under an Eastern Star

Loveland Lake

Rice paper kites
climb toward the sun.

Wind stills, kites dive,
tangling in trees
pregnant with spring buds.

Kite tatters echo
splashes boys make
throwing pebbles
in the lake. Kite tails
flutter rag fingers,
begging to fly.

Wild geese rise,
flaunting their wings
to tease the broken kites.
