This is an excellent 3-5-3 poem and entry for the contest
There are lots of envious people who would love to burst your bubble
But you are right, the view is great from way up there
away from all the chaos.
Excellent picture
Good luck in the contest

    Thanks for your supportive review and good wishes. It's best to clear out when others are being destructive.

This is a pretty good 3-5-3 contest entry. I think that you did it very well. Of course, most of us cross into pessimism, but we can also ignore it. Thanks for sharing. Good luck in the contest!

I love the idea that precipitated this charming post my friend. When I was a young boy I dreamt I could levitate to escape all the problems on the ground, this is virtually the same thing, rising on the wings of an eagle is another, well done, excellent entry, good luck, blessings, Roy

You have an excellent use of words that says much. "Rise above" is a great last line, it gives important advice. In few words, you say much about moving forward and not being down.

Isn't that the truth? I do so love hot air balloons and would absolutely go up, up and away any ol day. The pic goes perfectly with this positive little verse. Thanks for sharing.

    ... away in our beautiful balloons!
    Just climb aboard and leave behind those who want to hold you back .

This work has reached the exceptional level

I absolutely love this short work. Its clever, to the point, and makes the reader laugh out loud. Some truths can be said with both bite and a smile. This writer managed both with much success. I found nothing to tweak or adjust. Well done.
