Listen to poem:

Floating Bubble

Floating Bubble
David J Walker

I kissed the fingers that
Touched you
And tried to 
remember 
how they
Tasted

I’ve licked 
my lips 
A thousand 
times 
But can’t
remember 
Your lipstick

Or the perfumed scent 
Left below the ear
On your neck
Where you
Knew  I would
Find it

Thankfully
I can only 
remember you
as we were 
trapped in 
A time contained
In a floating bubble
