Balloons

Seducing with their siren song Those who with skyward gaze Watch with childish fascination The dance unveiled above Bright globes of color Greet the cloudless day Sharing a quiet moment Basking in the beauty Of a clear blue sky Skipping through the gentle air Rejoicing in the freedom Of tethers released Heavenly aspirations pursued Happiness is a balloon
