out of breath
paper balloon, i say, get
up, and glide towards the sun.
i shall, says redstained ball. let
me rest awhile, and i'll run
when merriment comes.
paper balloon, i say, roll
down hills, and lie on the grass.
i can't, says persimmon ball.
your happiness didn't last,
imperfectly numb.
paper balloon, i say, will
you play with me again?
i won't, says crimson ball. fill
me with laughter, not pain.
but my breath is gone
...i say.

I get this really light, and soothing tone from the poem.
I like the imagery I pull from it, images in my head etched with pastel colors, drawn by your words.
Balloon!

Yeah. So I'm bringing back good writings. Get over it.
I
really like this, Queen. The subject matter is different - and your words are simplistic, yet they paint beautiful images.
