AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
On a sun-faded hill, endless and still,
A young girl stands with a thread in her hand.
No wind is blowing, no sudden chill,
Warm light is washing over the land.
Her kite, a bright speck against the sky,
Refuses to dance or to chase the breeze.
Safe in a cloud, way up so high,
It found a shelter of perfect ease.
For even Joy, if it wants to stay,
Cannot be pulling the string forever.
It needs to quietly drift away,
Into a space of no endeavor.
To rest in the white, out of everyone's sight,
To fold its ribbons, to pause for a while.
Only to wake when the wind feels right,
And rise again with a brilliant smile.
