Billy's Balloon Adventure

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.
