Utopia and the Soap Bubble

Utopia and fairyland bliss, my soap bubble has blown a kiss- Shangri-La and earthly heaven, blowing soap bubbles since I was seven. Freedom and a reawakening of life in the greatest degree has given me clarity with less responsibility. I’ve been to Mt. Zion a time or two and had trust of dreams coming true. I believe in utopia- a place where no pain can be found. I trust in the way the earth rotates as the axis spins around. In the final moment of my life will be a bubble made of soap, messy and slimy giving me nothing but hope. A kingdom of wonder without rain or roaring thunder- a land of milk and honey without the worry of wealth or money. A safe haven for all to live, with everyone willing to give- a home with plenty of health and more for you and less need for yourself. As a child, I had a dream, reality so it seemed- I laid on the grass and rubble, blowing big and round soap bubbles. In my dream, I danced and pranced- I played and stayed in the garden of Eden, I made sand castles and my soul’s desires did deepen. I needed not material things- diamonds or fancy rings, but embraced the childlike feeling and held onto the intense healing. Freedom comes from the beauty within, desire comes from your sweet soul- Utopia… a magical place without sin, blowing soap bubbles... in a paradise to behold. March 22, 2017
