Soap Bubbles

I remember when I was young
Sending soap bubbles in the air
As the breeze or wind takes them
Some slow some fast

Some fade and some burst
But for a short time to a 
Little long time they 
Looked exciting and amusing.

Life events, if I look back 
Were also like those bubbles.

Good, some short-lived 
Some long and some 
Vanished too fast
But actually not, since
Even today I think of them

Then, how to call them 
Soap bubbles?
Because they floated
Colorful and ephemeral? 
 
The reason I could see 
Is that they were so 
Charming and Vibrant
Floating in the air to disappear

Like many of my unfulfilled 
Colorful dreams!
