Balloons

Awesome absolute of childhood exaltation - Balloons embed dear youthful memories within. Fascinating, joyful, colourful inflation, Promise rock steady future on a thread, so thin. Symbols of free and careless years of Truth or Dare, As marvellous in hand as magic in the air. Balloons epitomize a pristine paradigm - Short stretch when we believe in "once upon a time".

How ironic that your paean to balloons runs headlong into that Chinese 'weather balloon.'

I’m afraid timing is of an essence, yet I insist on my pure intentions :)
