Forces on Flying Kite: A Poem

Forces on Flying Kite: A Poem

 Up in the blue where the breezes play,

Kites dance on the wind and drift away.

With uplift pushing them toward the sun,

The battle of flight has just begun.

Gravity pulls with a steady hand,

Trying to bring kites back to the land.

The string feels the tension, tight and true,

As kites cut through the drag to stay in the blue.

Though the wind tries to push kites out of kites' lane,

Balanced forces keep kites steady and sane.

One little tug and kites soar up high,

The paper diamonds painting the sky!
