unexpected find
in the field behind the high school
pulled over the van so we could all watch it
bump slowly, and awkwardly
slightly up and then down
a little at a time
until there was only up

  2. Great catch! Watching the balloons float silently over head is a fascinating experience. I have not seen any in a while. I would see a few during my drive to/from work on those cool, windless days in spring and fall.

  3. when we lived in the UK there was a balloon place nor far from our house.

    we'd see them once, twice a week in the summer, floating over the fields...

    so lovely!
