This is such a creative haiku. Nice use of imagery and personification. There is a lot of depth for just three lines. Good reading!! Karen

Another masterful write Nigel. Lovely Haiku and great form. I am starting to think if these crabs actually think. I see their writing on the sand, but now you have thinking about what are their mission/purpose..this should occupy my thoughts all day..lol..great write.
