Aside

Bubbly Joy

Electricity races
From head to toe
And back up again
There is a humming
Radiating within my bones
That has nothing
And everything
To do with you

My lips crack wide
White teeth appear
A goofy smile
Cements itself to my face
Surely reminiscent
Of the Cheshire cat

It’s a bubbly joy
I feel
Sparkling and sweet
Ripe for the taking

Ah to take a sip
Gulp it down
And savor the flavor
Of all the good
Life has to offer
