That sounds like quite the experience. Well done in your composition are the feelings you experienced and what would attract another person to pursue the same lift off. The picture is perfect.

Dang it. This is just too good. I was going to enter this contest, but I better up my game if I have a chance. Your descriptions were so real, I felt I was there, taking in the lovely autumnal sunset. Sublime.
Sending you my best today and for the challenge,
Sally :]

The author's words are delightful, interesting and creative. The poem flows
and connects well. The reader enjoyed reading this poem and may consider a balloon ride! The artwork is perfect and compliments this poem well.

Comment from Iza Deleanu
I really like the image you created in this stanza :"All the while, I see mile upon mile
The collision of autumnal colors,
Fading away from the clutch of summer."
Thank you for sharing and have a blessed day:)

Comment from Mastery
Perfect, Jim. I love each and every stanza, particularly this one:
"A massive balloon, adorned in a Kaleidoscope
of colors, that radiate off a cloudy, sunset sky,"
A great description of a balloon. You are right, we all should take this ride at least once in a lifetime. : ) Bob

Hi Bob, the solo trip I had ascending over mountains around Denver was extraordinary, indescribable, dreamlike.

Wow!

Neat little free verse poem with some random end-rhymes and half-rhymes like 'colors/summer' and 'reach/feet.' There is 'c' alliteration in 'collision,' 'clutch,' and 'colors.' Enjoyable read about a hot air balloon. Easy enough for young readers to comprehend, too.

This is a wonderful poem. I felt like I was riding in the hot air balloon
with you! Your images are great. The collision of autumnal colors and
kaleidoscope of colors are great lines.

Hello JLR a terrific Tuesday to you my friend. I liked your club entry for the "Autumn Balloon-Balloon Ride." I may put a hot air balloon ride on my bucket list, but for now I will just let your descriptive words help me experience the ride. Good job and Thanks for sharing!

Reading this was an adventure, a much safer adventure than doing it myself, LOL.
You did such a good job describing the sights and sounds - a poem well written. Hugs, Lou

This is the second poem I have encountered with the same picture. I thought the last one was good but this captures the freedom of the balloon better. Thank you for sharing.
