Bubbles , a lightness resting in a clear circle
the colours collectively stir safely within
hiding , and invisible
dancing without a need to worry about being seen
bubbles , feathers floating in the sky
a wish has been made with the help of a dandelion clock
a child has helped a bubble move gladly into the breeze
and away from the bottle in which they once rested
where they simply rested as water , waiting for an escape
a transformation like a caterpillar waiting for her time to gain more freedom
and move into the shape she was maybe made to be
bubbles , a lightness resting in a circle
the colours are invisible, sighing and unseen
grateful and safely contained
in a place of soft gentle lightness
and yet within that subtle sense of lightness there is another sigh
one of irritation
and a feeling of somehow being still that little bit trapped
and wanting to truly be that butterfly
the change of turning into a bubble still felt slightly disappointing
because even with the lightness she still experienced a sense of feeling internally trapped
lightness alongside a feeling of feeling stuck and wanting to move away
wanting more
irritated still with her internal world
upset with a situation , a feeling
bubbles , a lightness living within a circle
a child has made a wish
set water free from a bottle
granted a wish with a dandelion clock , into the world
A lightness within
a light bubble stands and colours stir somehow safely within
and yet there is a wish to be more than a bubble
there is the wish for the freedom of a butterfly
she doesn’t want the sense of internal trapped feelings alongside the lightness stirring somehow within
she just wants to feel free and living like a light butterfly

Is it time to move away and start afresh?
Really like that new picture youre using.
So many emotions so well written
Well penned dear poet
Life is like that we feel light when we can speak our mind but at times we feel trapped within the chaos of uncertainties that lay
So well captured the feelings in simile of a bubble
Now your bubble resonates me too
I wish I could be like a butterfly
Rather a bubble trapped with different hues inside
Fine words yellowrose. I am sure that before long you will escape from your bubbles and fly like a butterfly into a wonderfully happy life.
