I missed the plot along the way and landed in a puddle not deep enough to drown the lot so I stayed there blowing bubbles. Gurgle, gurgle - this is fun for one who could swim free because blowing bubbles not the norm in any given circumstance. So in the water not quite sane the one who could swim free remains and to this day believes, you see that bubbles “make the man”. And I know to blow, blow bubbles, when the water rises so but what in shallow waters mind perceives as bubble level? I cannot will an undertow or call the wrath of heaven down to make that water grow ~ and so I simply have to say I’m blowing bubbles in a puddle over, over again, because after bubble, bubble, comes toil and trouble!

Gosh, dear Helen, are you ok? I guess yes, as you have told us the story. Tragicomic, a wet bubbling read! Love bubbles, but not those bubbles! Hugs, dear Poetess. Margherita |

Yes, I'm fine thanks, Margherita. Other people aren't though and all I can do is ... blow bubbles. Helen |
