High Above the Trees
A Cascade Poem for the Pic This Challenge17 total reviews
Comment from Iza Deleanu
I guess a trip on a balloon in a calm, warm October day will be a good way to feel in Heaven:) I like the start because is settling the mood:"Floating high above the trees
I feel the warm October breeze
Leaving troubles far behind
as peace begins to soothe my mind."
Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Thank you for your kind review. I actually dreaded going up in a hot air balloon, but for our 40th anniversary my husband convinced me to go up in one. I was pleasantly surprised at how peaceful it was and actually enjoyed seeing the wildlife frolicking in Florida's everglades!

I cannot imagine taking a balloon ride as I have a tremendous fear of heights (as does the Speaker) yet I can sense her joy of Freedom as she ascends. I especially like when she feels the child in her emerge. Rod

This is another great poem using this picture. I like the way this one shows the freedom of the balloon as it floats in the breeze. It captures its essence. Thank you for sharing.

lovely. sounds peaceful, as you said.
I don't know about "night-ballooning" though. :)
I liked your descriptions of your feelings and the restorative powers of your balloon flight. very good entry for the contest. Imaginative.

A very well-written cascade poem and an excellent interpretation of the picture this challenge. To see the world from a different perspective is always refreshing and eye opening.
