A Quickie

bubbles rise to the surface like little cocoons of hope they strike the velvet surface and merge with the air exploding another dream

Neat brevity here, Barbara. I like the fantasy with the personification of the bubbles. Best of luck, I give it a 10/10.

And when the bubble bursts, the depths of all hope erupts unto the heavens where dreams come true.

Dear Barbar, I love the way you see "little cocoons of hope" in the bubbles. What a pity they end up "exploding another dream," but life is like that. Best wishes in the contest! Love, Carolyn
