Balloons

Balloons Round and full, Always seeking the sky, Lighter than air. Reminders To celebrate Birthdays and birth. Hold tight the cord - No escape with the wind – Joy on a string Bright colors dance - Welcome to happy times - Rainbows of laughter Always young Holding a balloon Smiling hearts laughing 2-16-23 Contest: Balloons Sponsor: Anthony Biaanco

Hi Sam - an awesome fun filled poem. Children love balloons adults too. Birthdays, graduations, engagements and births would all be a reason to hold a balloon, or hang balloons on light fittings for a New Years party or tie them on gates for a house warming, I LOVE BALLOONS. Have missed your comments my friend, not that I'm much better. Hope you are well .
