Flying Kites

by (1862–1942)

Listen in the reader

A blustering windy day's just right For boys who want to fly a kite; And it affords the greatest joy To make and use the pretty toy.

But Aged Duffers, do not try A large-sized paper kite to fly; You could not manage tail or string, And ten to one you'd spoil the thing.
