Look Down On the Yellow Sub

Flying high in the sky
living with not a care
no harness there to hold
you really feel so very bare

It's such an exhilarating thrill
now know how birds do feel
flying through clouds and skies
so free this is the real deal!

Everything's so small down there
looks just like little small dot
at moment I see a yellow thing
quite long indeed maybe a plot

It's filled with such little people
my microscope sees such detail
waterproof coats they've got on
maybe out on an ocean sail

Now could it be a submarine
plotting someone's final downfall
bright and yellow oh so clear
getting closer now total freefall!


( just some thoughts about imagining being a bird flying up high, describe what you see down below.)

Great job here. I could see myself wafting along in a big hot air balloon marveling at all the sights I could see from up there. Wonderful stuff.God Bless, JB
