but it's time

you see the grown children
floating in the sky, 
their hands
tight around
the strings of great
balloons.
the wind will take
them where they need to
go, no longer
tethered to the ground,
to the parents who wish
they'd stayed longer,
be small, be young.
be forever around,
but it's time.
