(On to Day 18 of the BlogHer challenge to post for 31 days with the prompt “hot”)
Years ago, my sister took my parents to a hot air balloon event. She and my Dad went for a ride. It was a wonderful ride but my sister did not think about the landing. Landings in hot air balloons are not smooth, soft events. My Dad was 80 at the time. It was a landing none of them will ever forget. (He was a bit shook up but fine.)
Hot air balloons
All sizes and forms
Take to the skies
Hot air balloons

Hot air balloons
Wish I could fly
Feel the soft lift
Hot air balloons
No desire to land
Bump bump splat
Thanks for reading!

Bump bump splat, a very fun poem. I’m impressed that you continue to think of new hot ideas. Keep going………………………………
Thanks! I will admit that I am counting the days….
I’ve always wanted to do that (go on a balloon ride, not bump bump splat). 🙂
