well we are going to follow one by one
up into the sky above where we belong
can you see me there all light and round
never been so high never will be found
up and over the town
and I hate looking down
it’s all such a mystery to me
it feels so cool to be free
but you know the magic’s complete
as I gaze on the streets
when the moment comes you just let go
let the filly take you on her rodeo
I just can’t describe the affair
with the wind in my hair
and the mountains so bare
there’s so much to behold
yet so much to beware
wait how far is this
hey I’m losing my bliss
and this sickness inside
but there’s nowhere to hide
just downwards to slide
the last thing I knew
was a flash of white light
a pressure too tight
as they turned off the light
above the city of lights
said goodbye to the night
goodbye to the flight
you have captured the bubbles vividly and beautifully,
elegant imagery.
thanks.. appreciate the feedback..! the photo helped though, if you get the right one it can spark ideas..
So, the moment of fantasy ends. Pop! Guess we shouldn’t fly too close to the sun? But – ‘better to burn out than to fade away’, isn’t it? Perhaps we should ask a bubble. Nice poem, Tiger, to start off the day.
Thanx mystery guest 🙂 it’s a response to a challenge on the website..

here’s hoping the bubble won’t burst.. 🙂
I love how you used the prompt and became the bubble! Very nice write!
cheers! that was my first instinct so I went with it.. for me it’s either fifth gear or the car don’t start..!
positive,
good to wave goodbye to flight and dark night,
Thanks for the sunshine.
You can’t hide from the rain, wait til the sun comes out again.. 😉
