B U B B L E S ! A Sonnet

BRIAN & ANGELA

BUBBLES are beautiful ~ ephemeral 

Here today and gone ~ alas tomorrow 

But in their transient life ~ always bring joy !

Children love blowing bubbles ~ and Adults

Given the chance ~ because they are magic.

Spherical ~ transparent ~ rainbow coloured

We don't ask why or worry about their .....

Surface tension or refraction we just .....

Accept their beauty ~ ignore their physics.

Why can't life be so much more ~  bubble wrapped ?

Love you job (and your Boss !) and don't worry

About salary or redundancy.

Love your Family day by day ~ don't worry

About tomorrow ! Live in a BUBBLE !

 

Thanks for reading ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

 

This is a Blank Verse Sonnet in iambic pentameter ~ OK

  • Comment from author about the poem: I have always loved blowing bubbles and watching them float away. I think in the 21st C we take life much to seriously. We could learn from BUBBLES to be more beautiful ~ to give joy ~ enjoy what we have and float free ! I'm a BUBBLE PERSON are you ? Love BRIAN XOX
