There really is a distinct shortage of good rhymes in English.
Aeolian Squid
Observant sailors sometimes say
that over Arctic seas
they see small blobs of silver-grey
floating on the breeze.With bodies full of helium,
they rise above the spray,
and trail ten dangling tentacles
in search of tiny prey.

But you do a job with what we have anyway — even though I think you can do better with s.2 l.1 – full with sounds clunky.
Cheers!
Yes, that is in fact a straightforward editing cockup, now you mention it. Oops. It should be ‘full of’ or ‘filled with’. I’ve edited it.
