Hot Air Balloon Poem by jenny mq liew

she was on the hot air balloon
the wind was blowing them wayward
she was lost
because she didnt know where they were going
and she know
that they have absolutely no control
over which direction the wind is gonna blow
so she was fearful
but the hot air ballonist told her
its alright girl
things beyond our control is just that
still we can do whatever else that we can
we can control the altitude
and as long as we keep hold of the cord
we can decide how high we are going
and at this certain height
is where the wind is gonna blow us
to whichever direction
that we want to head to
the girl smile
she understood

hold on to the cord
hang on to your faith

it might be something that has been brooding for quite awhile now
it might be a spur of motivation that hit ever so suddenly
either way
you know you heard that prompting in your heart
seize the chance
take the leap
look ahead
move on
and everything will be fine
