A Girl and Her Bubbles

A stream of bubbles,
Gently grazed my face,
As I lagged behind.

Admiring the colorful trail,
Seeing her reflection in each floating sphere,
Her laughter was captured in every burst,


One in particularly caught my eye
She jumped for joy on its gigantic size
A little girl’s accomplishment on this summer day
Helped me once again to appreciate the small things
In a world filled with thunderous commotion
Her simplicity quieted my spirit.

How wonderful it is when children manage to blow gigantic bubble, Sabina. They take joy in such accomplishments and watching her do this would have brought me serenity as well. Congratulations on your success in Deb's contest! Love, Carolyn
