Hello Ulla, A wonderful 5-7-5 poem that illustrates the magic and power of dreams. I especially liked:

awaken sweet dreams

(Ohhh, yes, and come fly with me.)

In 17 syllables, your poem tells a story of love.

As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck.

Oh yes I remember those passionate love days and nights and your brief poem brought it all back to me. So much can be said in so few words. Having said that I find the short poems hard to critique, I see nothing to take away.

Fabulous abstract image that dresses your intriguing poetic words of love. Great use of such restricted syllables. Sometimes love is so heady that it feels like a dream x

This is such a great 5-7-5; and could seemingly be speaking of passionate love between lovers, a mother's love for her child, and the list goes on...The imagery is wonderful and leaves the interpretations of the Haiku to different possibilities.

An interesting entry in this prompt. Your third line hints that this is all a dream rather than reality. Great imagery here. I like the picture.

Good luck in the contest, love, Y.

I loved how this poem expressed so simply and in so few words what it feels like to have feelings for someone. Your choice of words made it very easy to find imagery in your work.

You have cleverly crafted a fast paced poem using just a few lines and syllables. Your words and the picture you have chosen make me think of the excitement of new romance and how it makes you feel out of control, like you wouldn't even recognise yourself.

Nicely said :-)

I like the change from the emotional rush/intensity
of the opening lines to the softer touch found in the
final line. It reminded me (as an overall concept) of
the anticipation of that first kiss and the sense of "ahhh"
after it is received :-)
