Balloons
Traveling the winds
My floating friend
Flying above the clouds
You can tell when you’re angry because your pop is loud
You turn frowns upside down
I think you look better with kids then clowns
Sometimes I fill you up with every breath I take
Has anyone told you, “that you look good with ice cream and cake?”
What do you like best oxygen, helium?
Or do you prefer nitrogen?
I always wanted to ask you
Do you prefer ribbons or bows?
I see you make everybody’s day
Especially the way you bounce and sway
You easily fill a room with joy
That’s nice of you to give hope to sick girls and boys
I resent the fact that you can go away any time and be free
Yeah I wish that was me
You carry messages of happiness, love, and sorrow
Everyone definitely needs you, see you later…..until tomorrow
