I wrote your name on a blue balloon
With "I miss you" on its face,
Then sent it soaring through the clouds
To a far more distant place.

Up to your home in Heaven's realm
Where you went so long ago ...
I'm wondering if it reached you there,
From this complex earth below.

I know it's just a fantasy
To believe such things can be,
But I'll pretend it reaches you,
And you'll remember me.
