Beautiful bubbles
Rainbow bubbles –
Endlessly fascinating
As they can contain a whole world in their soapy spheres.
Floating up to the sky
They give us a new perspective on beauty
And remind us that life is as fragile and beautiful
As a child blowing bubbles.
Please indulge me as I wish my amazing daughter a wonderful 11th birthday!
Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig. — Marcus Aurelius
