Comment from Michael Groover
Your poem beautifully captures the spirit of hope, freedom, and the resilience of dreams. The first part vividly describes the act of flying a kite, conveying a sense of joy and anticipation as the kite soars higher and higher. The transition to the second part brings a reflective tone, where the boulevard symbolizes the journey of life, dreams, and the enduring human spirit.
The lines "Dreams... I still dream" resonate with a sense of determination and hope, emphasizing the importance of holding onto one's dreams and not allowing them to be broken. The poem encourages readers to embrace their dreams, walk through challenges, and continue to strive for what they desire.
The metaphor of the kite and the boulevard works beautifully to convey the themes of freedom and the pursuit of dreams. Overall, it's a well-crafted piece that delivers a poignant message about the resilience of the human spirit and the power of dreams. Well done!

Wow. I know, wow is used too much. But sometimes, one simply must use it. What an insightful intellectual review. You must be careful, your high IQ is showing.
Lol,

Wonderful! Yes, I really enjoyed! That's right, it's our imaginations and dreams that help us in our constant struggle with reality. I guess they always have. But your concept of letting go of the string and learning to fly is a stirring message of hope and inspiration. Well done! This has brightened my day! Debbie

No it isn't too long and the pace is perfect. Just the right length to get us thinking about putting on dem shoes and "boulevarding" again. Glad you got out of the shower to write this one down.

It's a wonderful moment to step to the other side. To dream and remember how it was, how it felt to dream again. Was relevant that daughter was still five and you didn't want to cut strings - then did. Put on "dem" shoes, why when barefoot is so much better. That single moment could go on forever. Live a little with the partner, warm in the water. Living and loving goes on forever. "Dream a little dream come true..."
