BALLOONS
Wetness stirs, tossing essence;
Reveling in sweet laughter of lavender,
My grandchild and I, float periwinkle dreams,
In shallow sheer delight, of crystal clear bliss.
We imbue exciting fragrances of make believe.
Us, connoisseurs, in our very own fables.
Pastel coloured balloons bunch overhead

    One of the joys of being a grandparent is skipping back two generations and playing again with the grandchildren.
