Soaring High

Soaring High

Whenever I see a hot air balloon float by
It puts thoughts of soaring in my mind’s eye
I have flown in a balloon
But it was teathered you see
So it really did not satisify me
To me taking flight
It just that, not you see
Flying in a balloon
Tied to a tree
Someday I will travel
In a balloon, yes you’ll see
Me up in that floating
Way above all the trees
And when I do,you can take it from me
Just how happy, happy I’ll be
Not to be teathered
Teathered to a tree
