bubbles, foam, suds, froth
泡 centers on small pockets of gas in liquid: bubbles, foam, suds, or froth. All meanings describe the same airy, transient formations.
泡 combines 氵 (water) with 包, which likely contributes the sound and the idea of something enveloping or forming a rounded shape, like bubbles in water.
Water 氵 wraps around 包, like a bubble forming a round pocket. Picture soapy water creating clusters of bubbles.
For ホウ, imagine blowing bubbles with a hollow reed: hollow -> ホウ, and the bubbles rise from the water.
