Be Like a Kite
Be like a kite – anchored, yet free to fly
Emerging from different cycles of life
Like bears from hibernation's deep embrace
We greet, we hug, we find our place
Discovering the paper mushroom, we find the Flowing Barn community nestled under the cool shade of a grand tree.
Drawing breath, our minds attune
To birds’ songs and leaves’ soft tune
Opening our eyes, we find
Refreshed faces, beaming and kind
Beneath the grand tree, on the soft grass, we gather for a guided meditation before painting.
Brighter adventures now we seek
Shoulder to shoulder, strong and meek
Faces unmasked, hearts open wide
Sharing pallets, side by side
Bonding over a shared painting experience with friends, family, or your significant other
Brushes dipped in shared wells
Words and laughter, their joy tells
From depths beyond what we can tell
Restoring bonds, we know so well
"This is the happiest moment of my week!" exclaimed a young participant.
Kites on strings, ready to soar
Facing sun and wind, we explore
Ever dreaming, wandering still
Embracing the unknown with a will
Nothing beats the joy of flying your hand-painted kite with friends and family.
