Warm water fills
the tub like the sea
only with bubbles.
Two rubber ducks
make the journey
across the suds.
Splashes and giggles
even a bubble beard
are made during bath time.
Thirty minutes have passed
now her hands and feet
are wrinkled like a prune.
Time for bed.
Very sweet poem.

This piece I wrote about my 6 year old niece. However, the more I read it I think about myself as a child taking baths in my grandmother’s tub.

I have lovely memories of afternoon baths in my grandparents tub during summer holidays, a bar of Ivory soap takes me there in a nanosecond!

It’s so odd how certain things can get you back to the past
