Sun's Balloon, Tipping Too Far Poem by james watkin

Sun's Balloon, Tipping Too Far



Sun's balloon, tipping too far
Of Day's gold cheer split.
Heavy all at once, the world;
And things upon it.

Afternoons I'd hear of boys
By its mooring lines
Hang adrift; so high they'd leap.
When laughter inclines

To that scampish decibel
That you instant guess
Many a gate, fence and wall's
Counter-threats mean less.
