The Balloon
I wanted to leave Earth
I wanted some headspace
I wanted to enter a race
I wanted to travel back in time
Travel with leisure and beauty
Take our time
Saviour this pleasure
Drink champagne and eat Fortnum & Mason hampers of such extravagance and decadence
I wanted to see the beautiful silk coloured balloons in their full glory
I wanted to feel the heat of the gas
That makes each balloon bloom
I wanted to stand in the casket
Feel the brown basket
I wanted to feel the strong winds
These balloons travel faster than I think
I feel the great force of the winds
We travel in cotton like clouds
In the deep blue skies
The sun almost in our eyes
We are so high
My head now dizzy
I take deep breaths
I feel sick and yet exhilarated
Zaps my strength
Miles above the Earth
The fields, seas, forests and roads
So tiny to me
They could almost fit into a doll’s house
It just bends your mind
This amazing sight
Being in the balloon is just wonderful
I really wanted to take you on my wild adventure too
In this wondrous beautiful balloon
