Poems about Balloons

Balloon
I should be thinking about you


but I am thinking
about inevitabilities.

Like how my dog's life will end before mine.
And how my heart isn't even beating half the time.

Maybe it would be better to relax our grip.
take our eyes from the sky
feel the string slip

There's biology and there's sociology and there's
plenty
of other people out there, man.

and

We'll pop
either way
or deflate
someday.   By Matthew

The Red Balloon


High above the world I fly

Deep red against a bright blue sky

Such a shame I was let go

By a young girl

Who now I’ll never know

But oh did she cry

And her mother did try

But I was gone

Floating into space

Her daddy tried to keep up pace

But I was much too high

And much too fast

In a few years, I’ll be a thing of the past

She won’t even remember the day

She let a pretty red balloon get away

-Jessica Evans 

Balloon

She is a balloon
Don't get caught chasing her
You will get tangled in her string
Or next time you look down you will be too far off the ground and you wont be able to float back down and you will be stuck up there forever

- BY Melonee Peterson

balloon

child
and there in his hand
balloon of bright colors 
not even rain will damp that smile
come on shine like a child's mind
all that darkness you feel is just state of mind
if anyone can smile in the rain you can
he is as free as happiness could be
in the living breathing dream of his balloon
no lonely dreamers in a child's eyes
all just strange wonderful stories in the 
wondrous playhouse we call a world
come on shine like a child's mind
our toys will all too soon fade away
let us rejoice in our laughter
rejoice in eachothers dream
child at heart is who i am
lets go find you a balloon
so you can shine like a child's mind

Well doctor.........

Well doctor...... it's like this. I was on my way to my afternoon job and i ran into an old friend outside of Starbucks. We said hello and you know regular conversation when you don't see someone in a while. So after we talked i told him that i work at Cally's coffee shop and he said he'll visit sometime. Then i was back on my way to work which doesn't start for another half hour.  I stopped in at Georges' grocery store. Which is owned by my best friends parents. So i said hello to them too and went on my way. I was hungry, since i didn't eat lunch so i went to the nearest QT and got a sausage burger. As i was eating my fill i heard a noise outside of QT and went to look and i saw a giant dragon crushing the gas pumps i thought they would explode, but nothing happened. We were all waiting for something to happen. But i looked away and started walking in the other direction. I kinda regret leaving those people behind to deal with that creature. But i have to get to work. The last time i was late i thought my boss would eat my head off my shoulders. But luckily i had a great excuse because i was stopped by an accident in the street that came on the sidewalk and i was kinda injured i guess laugh out loud.  My first day on this job was so confusing that i never actually got how to do it either. Well nobody gave me help when i asked for it either, so i had to figure it out on my own. And now i'm at the top of my work place. I then arrived at my destination and then a cow flew out of nowhere and landed on me and that's how i got here.

Poem Yellow Lilies and Rain

Bright colored petals, with spots of blue
A field of lilies like brand new.

Either direction you look, you see them for miles
Every time you see them you just want to smile.

When they relive again for another year
You're happy they reappear.

They are glorious during the spring
And the birds are singing

Birds using their enormous voices
Making beautiful choices

Flying all around the lilies
Thanking its not chilly

Purple and white lilies in the water
By the shore of saltwater

Lilies are the bright of my day.

TCC (Tulsa Community College) Questions

What makes TCC ( Tulsa Community College) unique is that its big and friendly towards people that are new and have a hard time finding things. What I liked most about the trip is that it was fun and you don't just stand there through a whole long lecture. What i like least about Tulsa Community College is that there was alot of walking. And its a very confusing layout of buildings. Some of the popular activities or clubs at TCC were the fitness center where there were a lot of weights and equipment that i don't know the names of.  One other club or activity is

In the left corner, behind the filing cabinet.....

In the left corner, behind the filing cabinet their were secret doors. They are enormous with European elegance. They look carved with reinforced panels that are dotted with decorative nails, and the paint carries through effect of a courtyard entry to an french, Spanish, or Italian estate. So now that i'm here next to them their beautiful to the fullest. I walk forward to the doors and find a key hole, but not one that uses a key to unlock it either. So as i walk towards it i hear a noise off to the right of the filing cabinets and i look towards the noise faster than i thought was possible. I see beautiful wings that are all white and sparkly and shiny. Its flying at me and i can't move. Its like i'm in a trance. I have a feeling that its not very friendly and it wants something too. But the wings are so pretty. I haven't seen the face at all. I don't even know if it has a face. I want to touch it so badly that i start walking forward to it and here a swoosh sound like wings taking off. But before i can turn my head i see a blinding light strike my eyes to were i went slightly blind for a second. I never thought about if magically creatures were real. When i had dreams when i was little they were always about the books i read nothing supernatural.  I've always had trouble using my imagination. I guess that means i wasn't very good at creative writing either. So thats probably why me trying to be a creative writer didn't work out either. So i failed at doing anything including the imagination part of my brain.  so i guess i'll never succeed in any that uses my imagination.
