I often sit and wish that I

Could be a kite up in the sky,

And ride upon the breeze and go

Whichever way I chanced to blow.

Then I could look beyond the town,

And see the river winding down,

And follow all the ships that sail,

Like me before the merry gale .

Until at last with them I came

To some place with a foreign name.

–Frank Dempster Sherman

breeze : a gentle wind
winding : twisting movement

gale : a very strong wind
