Margarita Lillico Poet Rhyme

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".

Gershon Wolf February 4, 2023 at 7:42 PM How ironic that your paean to balloons runs headlong into that Chinese 'weather balloon.' Margarita Lillico February 4, 2023 at 9:11 PM I’m afraid timing is of an essence, yet I insist on my pure intentions :)
