Poetry Monday :: Bubbles

If you want to read some good poetry,  Diane - who has taken over the hosting of  this challenge - and Mimi of Messymimi's Meanderings - who also supplies us with topics - are writing wonderful, funny, thought-provoking, ingenious and honestly well written verse. Go and read.

  Karen of Baking in a Tornado has joined us in this crazy pursuit, and promises us at least a poem a month - may  we hope for more!
  SpikesBestMate often publishes a nice verse in the comments.

  Jenny at Procrastinating Donkey who has been a faithful participant, is taking a break due to her husband's passing from this world. Let's continue to send warm thoughts, good energy, and lots of prayers her way.

Today, according to Mimi is the Festival of Terrible Poetry. Fine with me, as my brain feels like it has turned to mush.

I have something more to ask of you: If you read this and the poetry of others, would you please leave a comment. Half - if not more - the fun of these challenges is receiving the responses of others.


What can we put in a bubble?
A lot of sorrow and trouble,
A pinch of powder and rubble,
A measure of hay and stubble?

And if we have more than one bubble
Will we try to make it all double?
The sorrow, and trouble
The rubble and stubble?

Wherever we go, we want bubbles
But nobody wants that much troubles.
