Scaly green buffoon
Silhouetted on the moon….
Dragon with balloon...

lazy clouds billow 
ballooning in evening sky
pink blush, yellow smile

Wind

filaments
riding on the breeze-
ballooning on a world wide web....

She gasps now, in pain 
As the gentle therapist
Extends her ballooning limb
  ~ In childbirth's pangs
     Ends always justified means...

The ballooning won't stop
Unless heads go pop

To admit pride
And to other's confide

It's the only way to go
On God's path that is narrow

You may stumble; you may fall
But growin up can be a ball!...

A giant portion of French fries
Can make a meal auspicious,
So crisp and yum but, no surprise,
Not really too nutritious.

Of course, I have to recognize
This choice is not judicious
But it is worth ballooning thighs
For something so delicious....

Ballooning o'er the desert

Sun peeks up at you...

Experience nature's gift.



Wafting on the wind's current

Silence in motion...

Reflections of a new day.



The fire of dawn awakens

Hills of umber gold...

Borne to see such wonderment!...

Assorted alliterative anteaters always near
Ballooning banshees believing in biosphere,
Courageous cook coaxing coat off bear,
Dubious dingo dickies digging in dog’s ear.
Effervescent energy Ebbers egg so clear.
Figures of speech shouting the nut job is here!...

Mistakes

Imply a choice

This or that

And a character

Looking back and

Declaring a mistake

Perhaps with regret

With guilt..

Perhaps "others"

Judging what now

Is a consensus

Mistake..

A ballooning of

Stories based on

Illusory choice......

Like inundated praise
the rhetoric concern of tithe
ballooning, like a fact implied
inertia blinds with its deride!

To see it straight, to moor divine
I buckle too, as then resign
so many voices, tail wind's fine
could move ahead, so never mine?

Concourse profane, am strong at thine,
but trying self ~ so far behind!...

My heart ascends
With you, ballooning o'er Paris
My heart ascends
A stunning view that never ends
Near the Eiffel Tower, pure bliss 
I desire no more than a kiss
My heart ascends

Our love ascends
As we soar on ballooning spree
Our love ascends
O'er Paris, my broken heart mends
You ask with ring on bended knee,
"My darling, will you marry me?"
Our love ascends...

hot air balloon lifts
off the ground, there goes
great debate below
seeming solid ground
a noxious odor

but way up here
the air is clear
the birds fly by
and so do i

ballooning
is such fun
join me, you

dream big
seize day

bubbles...
expand and rotate due to
heats energies ballooning within...

changing in three dimensions at once and...
imaging as trefoil knots...stretching time-space
conservation limits till...the bubble gives birth

to smaller spheres each...with a trefoil expanding...
as a temporary three dimensional...time 'eddy' being that
manifests change as...sediments...with respect the currents of time

There’s no room for you here
Beneath my crisp white scallop shell.
Its cotton creases cling too close
And all the space is filled with me
My ballooning calves spread to the edges
And muffin tops warmly expanding to meet eternity
No, you can’t be here                                            (Even if you wanted to be)
Even the space 
Tented from my breasts to my waist
Is filled with softly groping shadows                             (Where you will never be)...
