Premium Member Broken Balloon
you didn’t know how you broke my balloon heart gloomy clouds melted in the sky of my eyes, and in torrent of tears dreams floated away with the torn petals of flower called love that bloomed in my garden all through the years until one dismal night storm came and crushed it creating the debris of me ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~...

Air Balloon of Thought
A silken sphere inflated by the mind, "Air Balloon of Thought," where truths we seek to find. No woven basket bound to earthly ground, But floating concepts where new worlds are found. We cast off anchors, moorings of the known, And rise on currents where ideas have grown. A tapestry of notions light and free, Unfurling vistas for the soul to see. What...

Premium Member An Errant Balloon
Posted February 3rd 2025. For Brians contest An Errant Balloon I saw a balloon yesterday. Then I saw another again today. Floating along on a sunshine ray wending on its way. Where did it come from? No one knows where will it go? where the wind blows. Did it escape from a small child’s hand? or is it...

I flew to the moon holding my balloon Heard angels singing in heavenly tune I watched fairies dancing Which was most entrancing It was magic made in the stars and moon. Soon my heart went plop, my ballon had popped I shook all over, was completely shocked Had the biggest surprise Stood there before my eyes Was mother wearing her favourite frock....

Premium Member Voltaire's Balloon
“Life is thickly sown with thorns, and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.” Voltaire In sapphire skies, so soft, serene and fair, a balloon floats adrift in tepid air. Nonchalant it hovers without a care. Over and under...

Premium Member Deflated
Balloons they float Across the sky In rainbow mood Excessive high Intruding birds Like cloudless thoughts With do's and don'ts With musts and oughts Above the trees Rooted, they cheer They dream of floating Far from here The gusting breeze Can guide your joy Away from ground That can destroy The brightest hopes Of friendship's love Enduring winds Of push and shove But bright the sky If dull the heart The journey home.. Yet, first depart From dreamscape fields From...

Balloon, balloon, so high in the air, Its destination I know not where, Its point of departure, that is too A mystery in the sky of blue. I too wonder, wonder, why oh why This bright drifter was allowed to fly As it left to float in the air so high, Did a two year old begin...

I'm making an observation Bout the state of the world today This is what I've come up with In my own inimitable way Maybe it's cuz I'm an old guy It seems there's much more strife There doesn't seem, like years ago As much laughter in everyone's life I know there'll always be conflict Somewhere around the world This nation or that one gets aggressive Controversy...

Premium Member The hot air balloon
In this open season of divisiveness and hate, our President is being diminished like fish bait. People forgetting his accomplishments and character traits. They lack empathy for what's been on his plate, show loyalty to the one facing a criminal fate, that one who is afraid to debate: the liar, the racist, the cheater, the snake. The hot air balloon they elevate....

Larry was riding his balloon animal to Tracy Town. The balloon animal threw him off, onto the ground. He got back up and said “Let’s do this a different way”. The balloon animal bucked him off again, that very day. So Larry got a needle and chased the balloon animal away. Down the hill the balloon animal ran, then swam...

Cried when I lost a balloon. Then found out they could fly! All the balloons I've set free, Have come back to me! Chased me down from beyond the trees. Strings falling with the air, Followed me from everywhere! None were lost at sea! They...
