The bright orange wand pressed upon her lips…
The tingle of the soap swabs the tip of her tongue, as she blows softly wishing for as many bubbles as she can get
Each dip, and blow she tastes the slight lather on her breath knowing it’s all part of the fun. There is so much fun to be had in that bottle she holds giggling to herself
Different sizes, different shapes of circles, warped with vibrant colors. The contrast of the rainbow as the sun hits them just as they evaporate in their silly little way. Drifts, drifts, each one popping with glee
She whispers “stay, play with me a little while longer”. Shes blowing now with all my her might. Shes trying so hard to make more than a few bubbles appear in her sight
Dipping, scraping the wand as if it were like magic in her childlike delight. Giggling again as some of the shapes seem to be that in nothing she has ever seen. Dinosaurs, pirates…her mind goes wild with imaginary playmates. Sadly they don’t stay long enough to play, try all she might
It’s all about imagination here, and in her bubbles can’t you see it?? It’s the Bat-insignia, maybe she’s in need of a hero in her play day. A Marvel super hero who showed up in plain sight. She sees it too now. Her eyes wet welled up with great anticipation. Someone, and not just any someone showed in save of her play date. Each bubble bat waves reared its light so bright, her excitement she could barley contain
A hero, her Hero, Batman!!! Right in plain sight, and it wasn’t even in the dark of the night
“Batman” she says, “can you come out and play”? What a day, oh what a day!! All in that of a bubble, and innocent ways. Batman came to save her day, as she was fast ending the bottle of her bubbles. She had someone, and not just any someone a hero had come to play…Batman saved the day
