EFFERVESCENCE



Transparent tiny bubbles
Those lucent little pearls
Trickle and tickle the nose
Of giggling little girls

Soap bubbles, sparkling water
Sarsaparilla, root beer
Dispense tingling sensations
Any time of the year

A twist of the wrist
Releases a soda’s fizz
Hissing and spitting
All to the tune of “Gee whiz!”

Lovely bubbly champagne
Fizz everybody knows
Launches a warm feeling
Way down to the toes

Unique, lively, bubbling
Gem of a sparkling escape
Incites conversation
Leaving no room for debate

Bubbles in nature
Turbulent to serene
Dance in waterfalls
Frolic in mountain streams

Nature’s bubbles
All teem with mystic glee
Bursting, popping
From highlands to the sea

Breaks in ocean waves
Iridescent seafoam
Call on each moment
That you witness alone

Colorfully prancing
Bubbles doth roll
Hear, feel, experience
Freedom within your soul

The feel of fizzy fizz
Downright incessant
Describes life at its best—
Effervescent!

About this poem

Nature’s wonders appear ordinary or place you in shock! Mother Nature interjects the weird and wild into the natural world. Captivating is her charm, fiery is her anger, breathtaking is her beauty! She is the quintessence of poetry, the effervescence of life!
