A Kite's Fate

Beyond imaginations my adornments are! 
Fluttering my colored wings above winds, 
That has her roots above tall trees, 
Do I ride to kiss the blue eternity! 
Often do I realize my bound-destiny 
By the fingers where the thread ends. 
For a caprice of the master fingers 
Or by the rage of the wind, my bondage 
Ends, and to some autumnal tree top 
Do I land bleeding to destined death. 
My share of salvation is the liberty 
That I enjoy after my death; when 
Color-drained paper-wings on a shattered 
Self is submitted to the self-less skies!
