Satellite
insecure
in gushes of wind
waiting for a synchronized effort
of rocket and fuel
my humble child
your profile and your smile
endearing, kind
sumbandilasat
a small part
of your heart ... vast
I wish to walk on water
spiral through space
a fountain of happiness
wellspring of joy
The day, sunny yet cold, keeps its secrets
ever-changing cloud race --
heaven's face
of fleeting expression
but the trees stand tall
its green they say on the far side of the hill
the sky forever
blue
and stars invisible
still
in kazakhstan
