I Want to be Your Bubble Wrap

I want to keep you safe, wrap you like a precious treasure

I want to be your bubble wrap

If only I could cushion you from the knocks and jars

If only I could protect you from the world within and without

I want to be your bubble wrap

Yet should I label you ‘handle with care’ or even ‘fragile’?

And is it really my place to tell you which way is up?

I want to be your bubble wrap

But at what price my love, what price?

With a daughter thousands of miles away in Iceland, IE, this is a very pertinent poem indeed. Thanks :-)

  I’m always amazed that my words can touch someone and I’m very envious of your daughter, Iceland, wow! Thank you. :)
