SOAP BUBBLES by BURGES JOHNSON

First Line: IF I KNEW MAGIC, AND COULD DO
Last Line: THE PLACE WHERE VANISHED BUBBLES PLAY.
Subject(s): BUBBLES; CHILDREN; IMAGINATION; CHILDHOOD; FANCY;

If I knew magic, and could do
Just anything I wanted to,
I'd blow a bubble strong and wide
Enough for me to get inside.

We'd sail far up into the blue,
And when it burst and went away,
I'd visit—for a day or two—
The place where vanished bubbles play.
