Meet You In the Skies

Once when I was traveling across azure sky, I was startled to see a lone giraffe going by, It roamed with grace, head up in the clouds, As if born to be remote, from earthy crowds. In my hot air balloon, I got a bird's eye view, The giraffe looked straight into my eyes, too! I went all around the world in my red balloon, Yet, that was the finest sight, like June moon.
