Where, Oh, Where Could My Balloon Be?

Release me.

Watch me float upward,

Into the sky.

Cut the string and let me be.

 

Release me.

Watch me rise

With marvelous speed--I never thought

It’d feel so good to be free.

 

 

Release me.

My candy color fades.

And you’re left wondering

Where, oh, where can I be?

 

Author's Note

It's simple and nothing fancy, but I like it. It seems almost... whimsical... to me.

very nicely done I loved it ; )

[Cathy Wattam]

Whimsical indeed and yet a beautiful flow to it. Reminds me of that classic film Red Balloon. Enough hot air from me.

[Forbidden Poet]

I like the smoothness of the lines. They flow wonderfully off the tongue. It's a beautiful and serene piece. Wonderfully done!
