The King's Bubbles


"Perfect and round, a sigh without sound
a circle of air, simple and spare."

King Bill is dismayed when all his bubbles float away.
He demands that they be brought back,
and gets grumpy when they’re not.
Finally, he discovers that treasuring the moment
is the best way to enjoy his bubbles.
