Up, Up and Away...

Illustration : Kay Akers


Please nab it
Just grab it
It's getting away
Sister's
Pink Balloon
Is now floating your way

The wind took it
And shook it
And then it broke free
Sister
Cannot reach it
Nor mommy, or me

Keep trying
She's crying
We'll be up there soon
If you
Let it go
It might fly to the moon

Just stop it
(Don't pop it)
Please don't let it sink
Sis just
Loves balloons
(Especially when they're pink)

I like the pink writing; it really adds to the fun of the piece.
