Helium Balloon

I am a celebration for the glad I am a release for the sad I brighten your every day Yet made to want to float away I am a delicate bouquet A gift when no words are to say I am in parade and holiday march I am your graduation arch I am delicate and precise I am the thought of something nice I am scary when you poke my skin I am funny if you breathe me in Full of hot air, hope and helium I can’t float if you don’t leave me some And all I really, really want to do Is float aimless into big sky blue Slowly drifting out of view Waving in the wind goodbye to you Feb 6, 2023 Balloons Contest Sponsor: Anthony Biaanco
