The theme of the poem is that our attempts to have grand experiences in life can be frustrated.

The theme of a poem refers to the message the author wants to convey through reading the poem. This theme can only be perceived by interpreting the poem.

In the case of "You've seen balloons set, haven't you?" we can see the theme because:

  • The poem shows a balloon that is rising in the air beautifully and gracefully.
  • However, when skewered by the branch of a tree, the balloon explodes and cannot follow the path it was taking.
  • This leaves the crowd, which was watching the balloo, frustrated.
  • The balloon represents people who plan and walk admirable paths.
  • Even with plans and successes, these people's entire journey can be interrupted by random things.

With this, we can perceive that the theme of the poem states that successful and admirable journeys can face moments of failure.
