Sunday 11th September (Sunshine and a Gathering Storm)


Mr. Kite looked out of his bedroom window into a bright blue sky with the sun shining bright over the horizon. With the wind gathering speed the leaves on the trees swayed and the dying ones dropped to the ground. Mr. Kite had planned a short trip to Monkmoor Lagoon to bird a few birds but the rain came and the wind blew so Mr. Kite watched in the garden.

A few swallows and house martins made a change from the pigeons and doves that are always around. Now back inside The Dwelling Mr. Kite saw red kites on The Box at a farm in mid Wales. Here they are fed everyday and come in their hundreds to the meaty morsels that are scattered on the ground.

With The Box covering the 9/11 memorials in New York and London Mr. Kite sat looking out of the living room window. About three thirty Mr. Kite saw two migrants flying across the sky with a low regular beating sound. Now although this is not Pearl Harbour once again two Mitsubishi Zeros flew south under the gathering grey clouds. Mr. Kite was glad to see the back of these migrants knowing what damage can be done by metal objects dropping out of the sky especially on this date with Japanese aircraft.

Once the suicide pilots had flown out of sight and Mr. Kite's dwelling still intact Mr. Kite settled down for a Tetley tea. Cheers.
