I have always loved this poem.... it was one of my favorites of all his
poems. I've always been sort of a dreamer and to me this poem seems like
its saying that reality can actually turn out to be a precious illusion
once in awhile.

I love this poem because it simply brought out my immense boyish
imagination. What if the moon was a balloon that could take us to places
of joy and innocence? Where everyone is welcome and enjoyed? I believe
there are places like that in the world, but the evils that live here make
me more and more unsure of such a place. However, this poem allowed me to
"balloon" back to believing.
