Notes About The Poem

Balloons

The amber sunshine huddles beneath billowing clouds to meet the graying green weave of the horizon, and countryside of enliven crowds of red poppies. A little girl in her pink dress, trimmed in white lace, runs, as her dark auburn hair dance free with the breeze; in a place full of grace and peace. Her red balloons escape from her hold. They roll and soar towards the golden heavens, swallowed up by the clouds, as she follows. 2/10/2023
