I'm leaving town
I'll be back soon
I'm taking a ride
in a hot air balloon.
The noise is loud
when the burners fire.
The heat takes me up
higher and higher.
I float in the sky.
It's a wonderful thing.
Now I know why
flying birds sing.
I saw a hot air balloon floating on the horizon on Saturday and I've been thinking about it all week. I'm going to draw a picture to go with this poem. It shouldn't be too hard to draw a hot air balloon. Today try drawing your picture first and then write your poem to go with it. I'm thinking easy shapes, like an apple or a sail boat. What do you think?
I like what u did with the hot air balloon... don't stop... there is so much more for you to do... ILY
ReplyDeleteI love this poem, Joy. It made me think of the limerick I wrote for David's (February 19) poetry challenge:
ReplyDeleteHave you heard of old man Muldoon
Who boarded a hot-air balloon?
His ticket FIRST CLASS
ONE WAY only, alas!
Now lives with the man-in-the-moon.
Good luck with the drawing, Joy. I am sure it will be amazing!
Cory
