Billy's Balloon Adventure
A Zany Poem with Bouncing Banter
Billy bought a big balloon
Bouncing high, it reached the moon
But Billy wasn't quite aware
Of the dangers lurking there
Beneath the moon's bright, eerie light
Beings laughed with all their might
Baboons, bats, and buzzards too
Beckoned Billy to their zoo
Baffled Billy couldn't resist
He boarded their spaceship, no assist
Blasted off to who knows where
Bumping into stars, he didn't care
Blissful, he bounced through the skies
Believing this was all so wise
But soon, he missed his home sweet home
Bawling in a baboon's dome
Back on Earth, Billy's mom had cried
"Billy, where have you been, you're bonafide!"
Billy grinned, balloon in hand
"Been on the moon, in a band!"
Bewildered, his mom burst out laughing
"I see that balloon, but where's your stuffing?"
Billy shrugged and bounced away
Bananas, bugs, and birds, his new array.

Poetry is my soul's language, and I wield words like a paintbrush. From heartbreak to hope, I capture emotions and spin them into verse.
Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
