Balloons red as strawberries sail under the summer wind, and like dandelion seeds each one  is a selfish wish of mine. I must try with all my childish might to save one before he floats forever up, up, in this strange room with no ceiling. I'd be a hero! My name would be written upon bathroom stalls and school house halls, whispered between sticks of gum and candy *** father would finally be so proud. But as my cherry-colored friend leaves this place only a hint of sadness remains because I know wherever he chooses to land, he will safely plant my wish beside him.
