Notes About The Poem

The Red Balloon

The little girl
set free the red balloon
it flew over a certain death
free from the pain
of auction
the little girl

Your creativity shines through, Arthur. Banksy and his shredded painting come to mind...Regards // paul

Great stuff. I had hoped that the buyer (at a ridiculous price) would have to settle for a loss of a fortune. But now I read that the painting has doubled in value. Strange times...

That is so beautiful. It makes me cry, and that picture you used, is so great
