Bubbles - Poem

Bubbles

Hope filled eyes look up at me
“Bubbles?” was his innocent plea
His smile lit up with childish glee

Blowing and waving the tiny wand
Shiny, delicate circles dance along
Each moving to its private song

Here then there, soapy rainbows disappear
As they gently pop in the air
Magic glistens on each tiny sphere

Fleeting is this moment in time
One second it’s there and then it’s gone
Only the memory lingers on

Precious small ones quickly disappear
And I am almost caught unaware
Like tiny bubbles in the air
