• This poem describes the flying of a new kite in the blue sky, and how bright it seems while flying.

(i) Here the 'blue' in the passage means the sky where the kite flies.

(ii) The 'bright' refers to the new kite

(iii) Flap refers to the fluttering sound when trapped by any obstacle

Thus the kite flaps on a string when it is stuck.
