The guy from The Life of Pi

a poem by Vishvas Rakheja

I feel like the guy from The Life of Pi,
Enchanted by all these kites in the sky.

Wondering which one should I try?
Which one would take me up so high?
Higher than these clouds which fill my mind.

These kites are all so colourful, so bright,
Can’t choose which one I should adopt as mine.

I’d rather hold on to all of them, managing them as I like.
Because I don’t care, I just want to fly.
