Let's
Go Fly a Kite
With
tuppence for paper and strings
You
can have your own set of wings
With
your feet on the ground
You're
a bird in a flight
With
your fist holding right
To
the string of your kite
Oh,
oh, oh! Let's go fly a kite
Up
to the highest height!
Let's
go fly a kite and send it soaring
Up
through the atmosphere
Up
where the air is clear
When
you send it flyin' up there
All
at once you're lighter than air
You
can dance on the breeze
Over
'ouses and trees
With
your fist holdin' tight
To
the string of your kite.
Oh,
oh, oh! Let's fo fly a kite
Up
to the highest height!
Let's
go fly a kite and send it soaring
Up
through ther atmosphere
Up
where the air is clear
Let's
go fly a kite!
As always, whenever there are two little girls together in my paintings,
they are my BFF of 50+ years, Weezie, and me as if we were children together.
For those who are unaware of our relationship, she now lives in an extended care facility in North Carolina after suffering several strokes, and living with heart problems and RA. Is is heartbreaking to see her unable to walk and her hands crippled from the RA. I posted this picture from my last visit with her on my other blog, but I will post it here, now.
