Pools of Bubbles

I swim in pools of bubbles,
rest my head on cotton candy pillows,
and bounce on marshmallow trampolines.

I gaze at blue stars in lavender skies,
slide down rainbows,
and spread my wings to fly amongst fairies and the Sandman.

I sail down crystal clear rivers speckled with jewels,
befriend lions, llamas, and leprechauns,
and leap across skyscrapers and mountain peaks.

I don my red cape to save the world in the morning,
blast off in a sailboat to the moon in the afternoon,
and sprinkle happiness glitter in the evening.

I refill sands in the hourglass of time,
reflect forgotten dreams and fears,
and carry optimism and hopefulness in my back pocket.

I am, after all, a five-year-old.

I am linking up for the first time with Memories Captured at These Little Waves.

      Thank you! What a fun link-up. It was fun trying my hand at freeform poetry for the first time too.

      Thank you. It was my first attempt at freeform poetry so I was a little nervous about it.

    So perfect! This is one of those posts you need to go to on those really bad days. Oh?! I’m sorry, I don’t know you. Maybe you don’t have any of those. Not with a 5 year old.

    Great first shot at poetry writing! I never would have known.

      Thanks! And yes, I most certainly have those days!
