Above Looking Down Above the earth floating on air, In gas spheres, upward extending Lackadaisical without care; Storm clouds brewing time for shooing. In gas spheres, upward extending Seeing creation gone amok, Storm clouds brewing time for shooing And seek shelter from the havoc. Seeing creation gone amok Liken to sheep among wolves Who seek shelter from the havoc, And see in the sky flying doves. The sheep bleat when attacked by wolves Calling the shepherd to save them And I fly free with peaceful doves Sadly, looking down on the mayhem; Watching the shepherd come save them Lackadaisical without care. Sadly, I look down on the mayhem From above the earth floating on air.

Thank you for commenting. If you're interested, may I recommend the poem "Monstre' Balloon" by Richard Harris Barham.
