This is a sweet and clever entry to the contest and I think children would love this imaginative story. I can just see it illustrated as book . Good luck in the contest.

This is such a delightful poem with so much imagination! What a fun adventure. I read it twice. It's certainly a poem I would enjoy reading to my young grandchildren.
Best wishes to you!

Well rhymed and metered, and this should be a popular entry considering kids love bubbles and your piece is super colorful. A couple lines are slightly clumsy with the natural enunciation vs. binary meter (e.g. "As new airborne flyboys") but overall it works.

Some minor edits:

To where they'd ever been <= I think you probably mean "never", not "ever"?

So these two <= extra space here

To surf the airs delights <= unless "air" is supposed to be plural, it appears this should be possessive: air's

Thanks for the read and good luck in the contest,

🦍

    Hi Harambe, The editor always seems to play with spaces and lines in my poems. I had to re-set the poem because it ran together. I think I mistakenly erased the "n" in the line.."To where they'd never been" and left an extra space after... So these two... Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever get the poem posted right? LOL Glad you didn't find too many errors! Thank you for the wonderful review and wishes for the contest! :o)

Your poem is absolutely delightful! I love how you take something as simple as a bubble and a spider and turn it into this adventure in the sky.
The poem flows so nicely - it was a joy to read. It's such a heartwarming tale of friendship. What a fun read!

    Hi Michael, I didn't know when I started where this poem was going! I wrote about a poem about a Kite, balloon and bubble
    having fun together, quite a while ago so, I thought I'd give a new bubble a journey of his own. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the wonderful review! :o)
