Halfway to Heaven

We're halfway between the Earth and the Moon Riding the sky in a hot air balloon All through the day and well into the night Me and my gal on a romantic flight Floating aloft on an Easterly breeze A vantage point over deep salty seas The two of us engulfed in such pleasure An experience beyond all measure On this voyage is well worth defending But sadly now it's time we're descending So down through the clouds with nary a sound The tale we can tell when we hit the ground

I liked this poem because you have described something I have always wanted to do but never had the opportunity. Sounds like fun, Randy!

Thanks Daniel, I've never done it myself either. I wrote this after watching the movie Aeronauts. Good flick.
