Well done

I think I know what you mean. We try to do something but when it is time to let go, then letting go is such a relief. I hope I interpret "the kite" well. Nice naani, amada...

Thank you, Belinda. Yes, it's a great interpretation, letting go and the weight go off your shoulders.

Letting go is sometimes the hardest spiritual tool we have. i like the way you focused in on this. lovely idea and looks so easy to when you compare it with a kite

This is a wonderful Naani poem. I really like the use of the kite for freedom and how freeing it, frees you. Well written, and I hope you do well in the constest. DBL

I like your poem. The graphic and the imagery work well together. Unless your 'kite' is the weight of your worries I would possibly suggest using 'fly' instead of 'go.'

Thank you John. It was a tough decision between "go" and "fly."

This is a very good naani poem. It meets the criteria of 20-25 syllables in four lines nicely, especially with your using just the one word, "go", at the end. I like the poem, but I believe I would not have had any idea what you were making it really about if I hadn't read the title. Still, they go well together, and I wish you good luck in the contest!

This is a fine example of the naani form and a strong contest entry. I like you conclude with only one word in the last line, "go"--very well thought out.

This is great and brings me back to the days when both of mine would fly their kites but they didn't want to let go, lol. They would with baloons and watch how far up they would go. I love your note about the pull of gravity. Good luck in the contest!

A very thoughtful Naani poem, true to the form.

I enjoyed the piece, I can take the poem in another way. Let our burdens go, it fits.
I wish you well in the contest, this looks like a good entry.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Good luck in the competition.
