captured - expanded - reflected
by a miniature sun
playing metaphor
a yellow balloon
released to the heavens
speaking the language
of the freedom
(happiness
and love)
that comes on the wings
of the future

A very hopeful piece. I'd like to think that there was a place in heaven for yellow balloons looking to be free but I just don't know. Anyway, good work with the poem
