The Height of Haiku Challenge, Day 21 - Bubbles

Welcome to Day 21 of The Height of Haiku Challenge, where your challenge is to write 30 haiku in 30 days. The prompt today is BUBBLES suggested by Nanka.

Here's mine:

BUBBLES

Bursting in the wind
Running the poor kids ragged
Catch them if you can

    Cats too! I remember blowing bubbles to the fascination of my dear departed Mang.

    My kids always loved doing this. And my dogs. The cat. Me.

    Great fun all round :)

    Ah! come and get me
    Poor kids ragged, rise to catch
    Dreams to meet their need

    Lovely, interesting Haiku!!

    It's the great thing about bubbles: even when you can catch them, you can't.

    This one made me chuckle; bubble blowing is indeed one of the best child-tirer-outers ever invented. :)

    Kids blowing bubbles
    running in the wind
    touching with fingertips
    a soft burst of air.

    bubble game
    kids never tiring
    running yet
    enjoyed the visual, no one pities the poor me having to blow bubbles non stop for my nephews to catch

    Great haiku.
    Brought back childhood memories - we would chase bubbles forever.
