Skies Filled To Heaven
Happiness began in a hot air balloon.
Lovers just married in dreams’ basket did swoon.
Fantasizing forever amid the colorful blue sky.
Two hearts, life betrothed, together did fly.
Ballooning through heavens, oh marvelous sights.
Sparkling stars shone above the city's night-lights.
Fiery drift knew friends watched from below.
Newlyweds soaring together knew love's glow.
Blue skies gave witness to the melodious flight.
And angels were singing at the glorious sight.
All of a sudden came a message from below.
A thousand balloons in colorful glow.
Skies filled to heaven with the fantastic swish.
Balloons came from friends sending their wish.
Happy days, newlyweds; may God bless your life.
Love each new tomorrow as husband and wife.
