Balloons
Soar high in sky,
Leaving party below.
Children looking up in delight,
Beholding the bright and cheery colors.
~Reds, oranges, yellows, and greens,
And blues and purples too.
Summer time and
Balloons.

I just love ballons ... they're so expressive of the child in us, and the fun and carefreeness....

great subject terrifically expressed.

(giggles in delight) Oh Linda, yay, I have always loved balloons and still do so much! (kiss on cheek) Actually when I was a little boy whenever a balloon popped, it made me cry and broke my heart but then my mom blew me a new one and I giggled happily again, she always knew how to cheer me up! (smiles) yay, this is gorgeous, let's go for a hot air balloon ride to heaven, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Noah ~

I still get a little nervous when I am blowing up balloons--even when someone else is doing the blowing! I dislike being startled!--But that's okay--having the balloons is worth the risk of being startled and having my halo slip!

Riding together on an air balloon to heaven?--sounds divine! But let's just go for a visit--we have lots left to do here on Earth! The children need you!

I love this, Linda. I saw in my mind's eye,
balloons going up into the air......balloons
of all colors. A very beautiful sight, it is..

Linda, I’ve been told (on more then one occasion?) that I have a lot in common, with hot air balloons...

But anyway, we won’t go there...

Whenever I see a lone balloon drifting by, up in the sky. I think of some poor kid somewhere, balling his head off...

Just like the message in the bottle, I wonder how much luck a guy would have, writing, “Send Help, I’m a slave, trapped in a balloon factory in Ohio!” on a balloon?

Ahhh... I guess the world, will never know...

lol

A very uplifting poem Linda!


Thanks for sharing it with us,

Richy

Didn't you receive your invitation! I must have a talk with my personal secretary. She has been a bit pre-occupied as of late!

Next time I have a party, I shall personally deliver it to your email address! lol

Thank you for the pic! It is so cheery!

Loves and hugs Sissy,
Linda
