1. Okay I’m so hoping that this is a dream that you wrote about. LOL;. Now before the infamous pffft and go back and read, let me tell you that I’ve never in my entire life heard of frying bubble gum. It has just got my air head all in bubbles LOL. But I do like the whole Haiku 🙂

   1. Thom — since today’s subject is “dream”, yes, this is a dream I wrote about. I am so glad it made your brain bubble.

2. Sounds erm interesting! I wonder what this says about you pschologically?!

   1. Jade — it says I am bright, have a quick wit, a lively imagination and am just a bit weird — but only a bit, mind you.

3. I love the sound of your haiku. It feels romantic. But Thom’s comment does make me thinking.

   1. Rosidah — the sound of the words and the feeling of serendipity is what I was going for. Ignore Thom. Everyone else does. 😉

      1. Bite me

         1. The sound of words and feeling of serendipity it is. But, it is hard to ignore Thom, especially when he bites 😉

4. i really like this one. such seemly diverse images yet they go so well together. very vivid.

   Sensational Haiku Wednesday – Dreams

   1. Nessa — thank you. I’m rather pleased with the shapes and sounds of this one myself.

5. But…that’s impossible!

   1. Doug — not in my world.

6. That’s only three or four impossible things before breakfast … or am I missing two?

   (loved it!)

   1. Susan — I know. I was slacking. What can I say?

7. That would be quite an interesting dream!

   1. Barbara – -my dreams often are.

8. Poetic Licence I think it is called. It sounds like a Dream that Federico Fellini would have.

   Laugh at Thom’s comment.

   1. He was the King of Surreal but I an now the new Queen.

9. Frying bubble gum?! Well, they fry everything else, so I’m sure someone has tried it!

   I always love reading your haiku’s.

   1. Linda — okay, but I am not cleaning the fryer!

10. Wow shades of Willie Wonka! Sounds like the stuff “Dreams”are made of!

    1. Amanda – -Willy Wonka! Yes, that’s it! Perhaps I was channeling Johnny Depp!

11. You inspired me. Check out my newest post.

    1. Nessa — lol — what, no link?! 😉

12. I would have no objection to the bubble gum frying if it were not obviously wet as well.

    1. Weirsdo — and the smell — one definitely wants to fry bubble gum in their dreams and not in their home!

13. huh, i’ve heard of deep fried mars bars but bubble gum??? must have been a weird dream 😉

    beautiful (and definitely unusual) imagery which only works with a title – which haiku traditionally don’t have (sorry)

    1. I knew it wasn’t a “real” haiku, but most of these folks aren’t purists like you, and I really do like the imagery in this. I may just expand it.

       1. wasn’t it obvious that i liked the imagery, too? 😉

          and i suppose 99% of the so called haiku on the net are far from the real thing (which doesn’t necessarily make them less fun, though) so i’m hardly unlikely to ever join a meme like this but i will contribute my 5 cents’ worth my own way

14. My brain is trying to wrap itself around this haiku and failing miserably!

    1. Karen –what, you’ve never had a weird dream?

15. Oh MYYYYYY! That is QUITE a dream! I had a weird dream the other night … I wish I could remember it ALLLLL … but part of it was 3 of my kids came to church — without telling me! Now THAT was a dreeeeeam!

    1. Melli — maybe someday it will come true!

16. I am still stuck with Frying Bubble Gum! WOW… I just cannot imagine that at all.. Fantastic imagination and such an intriguing Haiku. Your dreams are AWESOME, Quilly! hugs, shakira

    1. Shakira — do not try frying bubble gum in real life. I am certain it wouldn’t smell good and the pan would likely not survive the experience!
