As short as it is, I read it a few times to be clear. What a quantum leap in the space of two sentences! Childhood is like that. It's such a short, precious time of life. It goes by way too fast. Congrats on your writing!

This we have done in our younger days. But the liquid was not colored. Lovely two line poem. Congratulations on your top placement

The contrast between the bubbles of our childhood and bubbles of an adult drink signifies growing up in this poem. I'm happy to hear you have fond memories as well! Xo
