her mother was inconsolable
daddy was gone

until a red balloon flew by

Though inopportune
She will see at noon

Taking away a short note
To an  unknown place
With secret message that waits

Who loved piloting his balloon

He rammed a turkey
And landed a wee bit too soon

You let the air out of my balloon
Before it could dance in the wind.
But a storm is brewing inside of me 
and I'm inflating myself again.

It seemed he would pop very soon
He took many pills
To conquer his ills
But the "cure" extinguished his croon

Love's Direction


Love is like,
a balloon in flight
It comes floating your way,
for a single second
Changes direction,
if it's not caught.

There was a boy called Matthew
Who decided to go to London in a balloon
And his Uncle wanted him to come soon
But the silly boy landed on the Moon

Love balloon

Her love for you is like a balloon
High up in the sky, announcing to us all
Just know that when it deflates
She won't remember the small air ball.
