Up, Up and Away........

by Geisha_Girl - last update: Oct 13, 2003

Sunrise Over Paradise

Sunrise over Paradise
Suspended under a twilight canopy
We'll search the clouds for a star to guide us
If by some chance you find yourself loving me
We'll find a cloud to hide us
We'll keep the moon beside us
Love is waiting there in my beautiful balloon
Way up in the air in my beautiful balloon
If you'll hold my hand we'll chase your dream across the sky
For we can fly we can fly
Up, up and away
My beautiful, my beautiful balloon

(The Fifth Dimension)


The absolute absence of a burden causes man to be lighter than air, to soar into the heights, take leave of the earth and his earthly being, and become only half real, his movements as free as they are insignificant.

The lightness/weight opposition is the most mysterious of them all....

The spirit of flight. Floating in a sea of tranquility. There is no movement of air for you have become the wind.

How does one top an evening chasing the moon under a Castilian starlight night ? With a walk through the clouds over Paradise, of course....
Prep Work

Sunrise

Your day starts at the crack of dawn. You need to beat the sunrise in order to watch it from the clouds.

With precision and care, the balloons are set up and filled with the lightness that will carry you off to a new perspective.
It's all about the LIGHTNESS
