Bubble

Bubble has always been a subject of curiosity, daintily airborne, rising gracefully!
Donning a rainbow cape, the bubble rises higher,
Clinging onto thin film, its dreams aspire.
To reach the skies, its heart is set on fire,
Stays buoyed up in the air by trapped in desire.
Stays buoyed up in the air by trapped in desire.
Eyes looking through kaleidoscope,
Fuelled by belief, padded with wings of hope.
Fuelled by belief, padded with wings of hope.
Soaring on a tightrope, learns tricks of trade to cope,
Staves off from pin pricks and the downward slope.
Staves off from pin pricks and the downward slope.
Bubble grows big, by now bursting at the seams,
Do not know when it might give way, spilling all its dreams.
Do not know when it might give way, spilling all its dreams.
Is pride flowing in, making it to bloat? Or is it fury that fills it, weighing from afloat.
Will the bubble choose to lose or brave it all and win,
Just an inch away from downfall if it gives in.
Oblivious to all odds, up and up it goes… the ephemeral high-flyer!
Know not what it takes for a bubble to rise… higher and higher.

That was such an enlightening comment from you Trevor! Feel so glad you took out time for it, liked it, analysed and let me know your valuable views. Like you have observed, inanimate objects do capture my attention and compel me to write. Think I should share some of them here. Thankyou so much for being so helpful. With your meticulous guidance I found it easy to edit and now it makes sense. Thanks once again.
Warm Regards, Gomathi.
