Maiden voyage

Exhilarating, quiet floating in air without a care.

Your poem is well done. I felt, I heard, I saw. I became part of the crew as I sailed with you through the air on an autumn evening. I felt the balloon as it raised, then lowered at its landing spot. I especially liked: "The collision of autumnal colors,/Fading away from the clutch of summer" a beautiful metaphor. Thank you and good luck

That looks like fun. I'd like to try it one of these days. I love airplanes, so why not a hot air balloon? You'd get a much better view. Love the picture.

What a wonderful free verse offering that so eloquently and almost excitingly has the reader join the hot air balloon ride.... think you've got just the right feel to each of the verses so that the reader can keep up with the images yet feel that the rhythm is consistent and flowing... :) :) Thanx for sharing! ;) Yvette
