Bubbles
blowing in the wind
I try to catch them
I can’t, what a sin
They float, they lift
with the currents of wind
Up, up, they soar
higher and higher in the sky
Gentle crystal bubbles
radiant colors, sparkling
Iridescent and glistening bright
rising, rising, soon out of sight

What child or adult doesn’t enjoy playing with bubbles?
A combination of dish soap or shampoo and water create the liquid that can provide an afternoon of fun.
A thin layer of soap film forms hollow spheres when blown through an object. The bubbles don’t last very long before bursting but children always find it exciting to try and catch one. It’s always been a fun pastime.

Last week, he wrote about bubbles at the beach.
His insightful essays on the topic are a pleasure read and worth a look.
