The Big Yellow Ball <br />by Barbara Lynn Terry <br /> <br /> <br />Over the mountains it came, <br />The big yellow ball. <br />Smiling it said, “this day I claim, <br />For one and all.” <br /> <br />Go out and play <br />In my warm rays, <br />Splash around at the beach, <br />Or for the sky reach <br />Inside your dreams, <br />While for each other you scream <br />Your love forevermore <br />On the sandy shore, <br />That each other will never part <br />Because of Cupid’s arrow art. <br />Even though we lose a love, <br />Let us not throw down the glove, <br />But go on and on, looking for another. <br />The heart is a lonely hunter, <br />Love is a fleeting shadow, <br />Surreal in the shallow <br />Of the human mind, <br />But it is we in kind <br />That can pull away, <br />As we smile and say; <br /> <br />Over the mountains it came, <br />The big yellow ball. <br />Smiling it said, “this day I claim <br />For one and all.”<br /><br />Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-big-yellow-ball/
