a home in the clouds

poem by: Kristen Nguyen
Written on Nov 17, 2018 

a lone red balloon floating up into the sky
such a sight was commonplace for the people of earth
higher and higher up it went 'til it reached the clouds,
where it would reunite with the others

nobody knows of the journey they take, 
only that is always one of peace
not only with others, but with themselves
here, they find a new home in the clouds
