Into the Bubble

by Bill Bowler

If it’s not too much trouble,
let’s dive into the bubble

where we’re safe and secure
from all harm for sure

with no doubts about
the threats from without

that can never get in.
Snug and cozy within,

we’re relaxed, at ease,
wafting along

on a gentle breeze,
singing a song,

or stretched out on a couch,
half-awake, half-asleep,

half-dreaming,
half-not,

reclining, admiring
from inside out

the glimmering, shining
transparent lining

of our floating sphere,
slight, unsmudged,

rainbow-touched,
iridescent,

second by second
drifting far

into the distant
ephemeral instant.

No enemies near.
Nothing to fear.
